Want to bring ideas to life?


As an engineer you're no doubt aware of Aurecon - we've been a leading design, engineering and advisory company for decades. But why should you choose to join us?

Every project Aurecon delivers leaves a legacy. Every project has sustainability embedded in decision making. And every project is at the leading-edge of technical eminence.

But it really comes down to one, crucial question: what kind of world do you want to create for the next generation? Truth is, the decisions being made right now will determine the future of everything - from the local community to the entire planet. One of those decisions is: who do you decide to work for?

How will your ideas help shape what's next?


Now, we're looking for the next generation of thinkers. If you're a Water Engineer looking to move to Perth and be ready to grow your technical skills on cutting-edge industrial, resource, defence, utility and energy projects, read on.

The Role

The primary purpose of this role is to deliver innovative and sustainable water, wastewater and recycled water treatment infrastructure design solutions for Aurecon's clients. You will be a key member of a team of highly skilled specialists that 'bring ideas to life' through a combination of technical knowledge, experience and innovation.

Here are some of the key things you will do to 'bring ideas to life':

  • Planning, design and coordination of piping systems for water and wastewater, pump stations, water distribution networks and treatment plants.
  • Civil design of infrastructure including earthworks, concrete structures, access roads, and drainage systems.
  • Development of Hydraulics and water balance calculations and models.
  • Preparation of detailed drawings, models, and specifications using design tools such as Water Gems, Sewer GEMS, Civil 3D, 12D, Open plant, AutoCAD, QGIS.
  • Collaboration with multidisciplinary teams (e.g. mechanical, process, electrical) to ensure integrated and constructible designs.
  • Technical input during planning and feasibility stages, including constructability reviews, material selection, and cost estimates.
  • Support during tender and construction phase, including site inspections, responding to queries, and ensuring designs are implemented correctly.
  • Work within study and project teams to meet scope requirements and ensure time and budget objectives are achieved.
  • Engage and build positive relationships with existing and potential clients and stakeholders, support business development and tenders to win and deliver work for Aurecon,
  • Produce input to written reports, documents and presentations to explain engineering ideas and concepts.
  • Support during tender and construction phase, including site inspections, responding to queries, and ensuring designs are implemented correctly.

What are we looking for?


You're a curious and determined Water Engineer who wants to fast-track your technical development. You'll bring:

  • Bachelor's degree in Chemical, Process, Civil, Mechanical, or Environmental Engineering (or a related discipline)
  • 3+ years industry experience.
  • Experience working in a consultancy environment, with a strong understanding of project delivery, client interaction, and commercial awareness.
  • Experience coordinating with services and utilities.
  • A proactive approach to problem-solving, innovation, and continuous improvement in design practices.
  • Familiarity with 3D model space design.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills to convey civil engineering outcomes with suitable language that can be understood by clients, stakeholders and other engineering disciplines.
  • Solid time management and organisational skills.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary teams and communicate clearly with clients and stakeholders and produce quality reports.
  • Desire to contribute, grow and develop the capability and experience of the water team whilst progressing your own career development.
  • Ability to relocate to Perth, relocation assistance provided.
