Project Engineer

Trade · Perth WA, Australia · Full-Time · $80,000/yr

Who is wanted: a Project Engineer or Senior Project Engineer with construction experience, for large civil, marine and recreational developments in Western Australia (Perth WA base).

What counts: proven, verifiable capability rather than a title. That means the right engineering qualifications, hands-on site experience and the ability to coordinate projects. Engineers in this team are trusted with ownership.

The work: a technically varied mix of construction activity. You will coordinate contractors, manage the interfaces between packages and resolve problems before they hit delivery. Sound practical judgement is valued as highly as technical knowledge.

Sponsorship: available for suitably qualified international professionals. Applicants from Pakistan should keep degree certificates and employer reference letters ready in English, as verified experience is central to this role.

  • Keep ITPs, HIRACs, inspection records and other quality documentation in order
  • Check compliance with environmental, safety and quality requirements
  • Guide and support graduate and junior engineering staff
  • Keep accurate project records and report on construction progress
