Job Structural Engineer, Brisbane

Job Title – Structural Engineer, Buildings Structures

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 your role will contribute to shaping what’s next

It is an exciting time for the Queensland Buildings team, with the 2032 Olympics upon us and our team already being involved in several of the venues. On top of this, we are seeing incredible growth across multiple local markets.

As a Structural Engineer, you'll be part of purposeful work that supports the future of the Built Environment. Collaborating with a diverse, multidisciplinary team, you’ll explore integrated solutions, offer thoughtful perspectives, and partner with clients to help them build a more sustainable world.

What you’ll be doing.

Our Buildings Structures team are a highly motivated team, known for their highly technical and innovative approach to some of the most complex projects underway in the region. Some key aspects of your role will include:

• Apply your experience in structural engineering to solve the problems of our clients using a design-led approach
• Apply your thorough knowledge of applicable Australian Design Codes and structural engineering practices
• Translate your design experience to delivering our projects on site with our construction partners.
• Enjoy collaborating with colleagues nationally and internationally within Aurecon to solve our clients’ problems across multiple markets

What are we looking for from you?

You blend technical knowledge with empathy and big-picture thinking. You're someone who thrives in dynamic environments, builds meaningful connections, enjoys being part of a team and is motivated by purposeful work. You’ll also have:

• A relevant engineering degree and experience in Structural Engineering
• A strong ability to shape thoughtful, effective technical solutions for the Building Structures we deliver
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills with a wide range of people
• Exposure to software such as Space Gass, RAPT, ETABS, RAM Concept, Strand7 and Revit
• 2+ years of experience in Building Structures engineering and design.

We value that each of our team members brings something different to Aurecon. We look for people who have had a broad range of experiences throughout their career and can demonstrate how they have worked as part of a team to bring ideas to life.

How will your future be shaped by us?

At Aurecon, no two career journeys are the same. We’ll support yours with a collaborative culture, learning experiences, and the flexibility to design your own path. We embrace difference, nurture belonging, and ensure every voice feels valued.

Joining Aurecon means you’ll be at the award-winning edge of innovation and sustainability. AFR ranked us Top 5 among sustainability leaders and Top 3 of all innovative companies in professional services. One Consult awarded us an innovative design award. Plus, we were Consult Australia’s large firm of the year.

You really can bring your whole self to work and be confident your voice will be heard. We don’t just claim we’re inclusive and innovative, it’s proven by the independent awards and accreditations we’ve gained. We’ve been recognised for our innovation culture, gender equality and our LGBTI+ inclusion. Plus, we have a robust Reconciliation Action Plan – our fourth edition since 2014.

On a personal level you’ll have access to flexible work hours, remote work, working holidays, part-time and job share options. Plus, you’ll be supported on every step of your career journey with mentoring, learning and our Careers Hub. Outside of work, you’ll be further supported with competitive paid parental leave, cultural public holiday swaps, plus wellbeing support programmes.

Who we are

Aurecon’s strength has always been our people. It’s our people who build our shared purpose and bring ideas to life. It’s our people who imagine and co-create with our clients a better future for people and the planet. Of course, you’ll probably know lots of our award-winning projects. The new Allianz Stadium in Sydney? That was us. The award-winning timber building of 25 King Street, Brisbane? That was us too. And the 2023 Engineers Australia Project of the Year – Murdoch University Boola Katitjin? You guessed it, us. So, when you join us, you’ll not only be joining an international design, engineering and advisory company but also a community working together to tackle some of the world’s most complex challenges.
