In this role, you'll help deliver projects through construction monitoring, contract administration, procurement support, asset inspections, and technical documentation. You'll work alongside experienced bridge and structural engineers, contractors and clients to deliver practical solutions that improve the resilience, safety and performance of Northland's transport infrastructure.
A strong commitment to health, safety and risk management will be essential as you support project delivery across active construction sites and critical infrastructure assets. While being based in Whangārei, you'll have access to a truly multidisciplinary business where you can draw on leading technical specialists and subject matter experts from across Beca.
You'll also have excellent opportunities to develop your technical, project delivery and consulting skills while building your career in structural engineering.
Aligned with the level of the role, we envision that the base salary component will be between NZ$70,000 - $90,000 depending on skills and experience. The role is full-time and permanent, with minimum guaranteed hours of 40 hours per week.
