Real success is the success you share

We are a successful civil contracting business who has been operating in Australia for over 35 years. With the agility and personal connection of a Tier 2, yet the expertise of a Tier 1, and the enhanced resources of one of the largest, world-class construction companies, VINCI, our employees and clients get the best of three worlds.

As a progressive, leading civil engineering firm built on the strong foundations of our unique history, we engage, enable and empower our people to be better. With you, we are altogether stronger, in building the future we want.

• Interpret and improve construction designs and drive continuous improvement.
• Track and report on project costs, revenue, productivity and resource allocation.
• Champion safety by leading HSEQ initiatives, conducting training, and addressing risks to ensure accident-free project delivery.

The successful applicant will have the following skills and experience:

• Proven experience delivering civil infrastructure construction projects for State authorities.
• Strong knowledge of company quality procedures, WHS, and environmental legislation, and ability to produce SWMS and ITPs for specific trades.

• Current C-Class Driver’s Licence.

We have a range of additional benefits available for our employees:

• Health & Wellbeing – discounted health insurance, seasonal vaccinations, wellness discounts, fertility benefit and employee assistance program (EAP).

• Financial wellbeing – competitive remuneration, annual performance bonuses, salary continuance insurance and employee share program.
