Base pay range A$110,000.00/yr - A$150,000.00/yr Direct message the job poster from Anjuna People Building futures, engineering careers | Founder of Anjuna People - Civil & Structural Recruitment Specialists What if your next civil engineering role actually gave you time back, not took more of it? Ever imagined a job where your fortnight includes a built-in breathe day your evenings arent swallowed by drawings and you finally stop being the only technical safety net holding everything together? Well, thats genuinely on the table here. Answer me this: Would having every second Friday as a quieter, flex-from-home wellness day make your life easier? Would freeing yourself from constant modelling, markups, and being the only sign-off person feel like a relief? Would joining a team that actually invests in offshore designers so you can focus on higher-value work, not grunt work, change your week? What youll enjoy A work pattern designed for humans A 9-day fortnight that lightens the load A chill, WFH-friendly environment Flexibility that doesnt need defending or explaining More life outside work If youve got kids (or a life that isnt work), this setup matters: Space for daycare drop-offs, pickups, and general chaos Predictable workloads, not surprise night-time firefighting A team that understands the early-years squeeze in Australia A role that finally matches your level Youre not carrying the entire QA burden alone Youre not marking up junior work for the 50th time Youre not stuck modelling because no one else can do it This is a grown-up civil engineering role. You get treated like an adult. You get backed with offshore capability. And you actually get to do the technical + client-facing work you enjoy. So, whats the actual job? Youd step in as a Senior Civil Engineer, working across general civil, industrial, commercial, subdivisions, stormwater, grading, roads, the practical stuff that makes you valuable. Your week looks like: Managing clients without needing to sell Taking on technical sign-off where youre comfortable Mentoring a mid-level and shaping a growing local civil presence Working with strong Civil 3D designers, not babysitting them Your impact? You free the current senior from being the bottleneck so he can chase bigger clients, better work, and less churn. In return, you get meaningful responsibility without being buried. Is this you? Youre probably mid-senior to senior, maybe 5+ years in. You know your way around: Civil 3D, DRAINS, and MUSIC The practical standards (AS2890, AS3500, DDA) How to run a job without constant hand-holding Maybe you bring clients. Maybe you dont. Both profiles work. What matters: youre competent, fair, and not afraid to take ownership. A real future (if you want it) Stick around, help build the Brisbane presence, bring in work overtime, and partner/shareholder opportunities appear naturally. Nothing formal or shiny. Just contribution = reward. Feeling the pull? You dont need a perfect CV. You dont need a polished pitch. Just send what you have, or message me on LinkedIn, and well chat quietly. #J-18808-Ljbffr
