Full Job Description

Flexible Working | Industry Benchmarked Salary Package | Annual Salary Reviews
Company culture that is respectful, inclusive and supportive
Take the lead on high profile urban development and public domain works in NSW

You’re an experienced civil engineer looking to take the next step in your career. You will lead project teams, taking ownership of the technical delivery of civil projects across built form, road infrastructure, high-density precinct development, and public domain works.

This role is based at our Newcastle office.

What You’ll Own
As a Civil Engineer, you will be joining a professional and collaborative team of engineers, designers, drafters, graduates and undergraduates, working on a diverse range of projects across the built environment.

With a strong pipeline of upcoming projects for both new and existing clients, you will lead projects while being supported by a close-knit management team. You will be client-facing, with the autonomy of leading projects from concept through to construction and technical delivery, while having the support you need to succeed. You will act as a mentor to emerging engineers contributing to their technical development and continued growth of the civil section.

You will be part of a growing office with a great culture, including regular team catch-ups, office events and social activities.

The Kind of Person Who Thrives Here

Our team share a particular combination of traits. If you recognise yourself in this, we should talk.

You’re grounded. You stay calm under pressure, and your decisions are guided by a clear internal compass. When things get difficult on a project and they always do, you’re the person who holds steady. Not because you don’t feel the pressure, but because your composure is genuine.

You speak up. You’ll bring an alternative perspective to the design table, even when it’s uncomfortable. You do it constructively and without ego; you’d rather give credit to the team than take it yourself, and you won’t stay quiet when something doesn’t sit right.

You build relationships that last. Not transactional networking. Real, sustained professional relationships, the kind where clients call you first because they trust your judgement, and where colleagues across disciplines genuinely enjoy working with you. Humour helps. So does actually caring about people.

You set your own standard. Your quality comes from professional pride, not from someone checking your work. You’re always looking for the next improvement and you’re never quite satisfied. The more complex the problem, the more engaged you become.

You need autonomy, not bureaucracy. You do your best work when you’re trusted to find the right approach, not handed a rigid process to follow. That’s exactly how we operate.

Why Northrop
We’re employee-owned. No external shareholders, no private equity, no quarterly earnings pressure. Just 500+ engineers and consultants across NSW, ACT, QLD, and VIC who have a genuine stake in the business they’re building — and have been doing so for over 50 years.

What that means in practice: decisions are made by people who do the work. Our management structure is open and accessible. When you have an idea for how to do something better, the people who can say yes are in the room — not in a boardroom overseas.

The projects we undertake come in all sizes across a range of sectors including age care, health, education, land development, commercial, industrial and residential.

What You Bring

Essential:

Ideally 3-5 Years of post-graduate experience working as a civil engineering consultant on built form projects.
Bachelor's degree in Engineering from a recognised university or institute.
Experience preparing detailed design and documentation of roads, intersections, pavements, earthworks and stormwater drainage.
The ability to manage multiple tasks at the same time, whilst working autonomously.
Sound understanding of civil design software such as 12D Model and/or Civil 3D.
Competent and independent use of other civil modelling software such as DRAINS, MUSIC and AutoCAD.

What’s In It For You

Industry-benchmarked salary with annual reviews, we pay properly and revisit it every year.
Genuine flexibility: hybrid working, flexible hours, alternative public holidays, we’ll have a real conversation about what works for you
Paid parental leave for primary carers, maternity, and partners
Salary income protection insurance
Monthly one-on-one career development conversations, mentoring programs, and investment in both internal and external training
Free EAP and wellbeing support.
A positive and enjoyable workplace with a supportive team, a relaxed culture, and regular opportunities to connect through social activities and company events throughout the year.
A diverse range of projects and opportunities, from small residential developments to major hospitals, race tracks, airports, and everything in between. With such a broad variety of work, there's always something new to keep your role interesting and rewarding.
