SENIOR STRUCTURAL ENGINEER - Design Consultancy
A well established and respected structural design consultancy delivering complex, design-led buildings across Australia is seeking a Senior Structural Engineer. Enjoy greater ownership, stronger project visibility, and real influence over outcomes.
There is an immediate opportunity, with the team continuing to grow. This is not simply a design role - it is a position where senior engineers are trusted to lead design packages, stay involved through construction, and be recognised for the quality of their judgement.
You will take carriage of mid- to large-scale building projects, remaining closely involved from concept through to construction-stage problem-solving. The role balances hands-on technical work with mentoring and coordination, making it ideal for someone who enjoys responsibility without being removed from engineering.
Design exp includes:
- Structural design of complex, design-focused buildings
- End-to-end involvement from concept design through construction support
- Regular interaction with site teams to resolve real engineering issues
- Coordination with architects, services engineers, builders, and clients
- Contribution to technically challenging, architecturally ambitious projects
What you'll be trusted with:
- Leading structural design packages and technical direction
- Maintaining design quality through delivery, not just documentation
- Mentoring and developing junior engineers within the team
- Helping maintain steady coordination across disciplines
You're likely to be a strong fit if:
- You have 5+ years’ experience in local building design
- Your background is firmly within a structural design consultancy
- You are comfortable using tools such as ETABS, RAPT, RAM Concept, SpaceGass, or Microstran
- You communicate clearly, keep work moving, and take responsibility for outcomes
- You enjoy technical problem-solving and supporting others’ development
Why engineers choose this team:
- Projects are architecturally significant and technically non-trivial
- Career progression is genuine and not constrained by rigid hierarchy
- Senior engineers have direct access to principals and technical leaders
- Ongoing technical development is embedded, not tokenistic
- The culture is social, supportive, and collaborative, with low ego and high trust
This role suits a senior engineer who wants their work to be visible, respected, and influential, and who sees value in staying close to both design intent and delivery.
If you are looking for a role where your contribution genuinely matters - and where further opportunities may follow - a confidential discussion is encouraged.
