A supportive community: Thrive in a close-knit team that values your growth and success.
Social program: enjoy our Orana funded social program with employee run events that welcomes partners and families.
Location: Chinchilla is a fantastic place to live and work, with ready access to recreational activities and character often lost in major capital cities.

Use engineering design software and tools (AutoCAD, Inventor, Advance Steel, Plant 3D, SPACE GASS, Pipe Flow Expert, AutoPIPE etc). Similar software experience is welcomed.
Conduct engineering audits and reviews, prepare reports and deliver technical presentations.
Dive into all facets of project management of various multidisciplinary projects including preparation of project correspondence, documentation, budgets and estimates.
Participate in both onsite and office-based works throughout the project lifecycle.
Collaborate with clients, vendors and internal teams to deliver quality outcomes.
Work alongside senior, principal and RPEQ engineers committed to continuously improving and delivering quality engineering services and solutions to our clients.

About You

You are a final-year or recent Mechanical Engineering graduate, passionate about translating theoretical knowledge into real-world solutions for mining and heavy industrial sectors.
