At WSP, we’re supporting some of Australia’s most significant mining projects across sustaining capital, brownfield upgrades, and major infrastructure. As our mining portfolio continues to grow, we’re looking to bring on a Principal Mechanical Engineer to provide technical leadership and help shape the delivery of complex projects from our Newcastle team.

This is a senior leadership role within our Mining group, where you’ll play a key part in both technical delivery and team leadership. You’ll work across a range of projects spanning bulk materials handling, processing plants, and mining infrastructure; supporting clients across Australia.

You’ll act as a trusted advisor to clients, lead engineering outcomes, and mentor a team of engineers... helping to uplift capability and ensure high-quality, practical solutions.

Drive quality, safety, and compliance across all project deliverables
Engage directly with clients, building strong relationships and acting as a senior technical point of contact
Support project planning, resourcing, and delivery, working closely with multidisciplinary teams
Mentor and develop junior and mid-level engineers, contributing to team growth and capability
Contribute to business development, including proposals, client engagement, and identifying opportunities

About you:

Bachelor Degree in Mechanical Engineering
10-15 years + experience working in a design engineering capacity, ideally within a similar environment
Extensive experience in mechanical engineering within the mining or minerals processing sector
Proven ability to lead complex project delivery and provide high-level technical guidance
Strong experience in areas such as bulk materials handling, plant design, or fixed plant infrastructure
Demonstrated capability managing client relationships and stakeholder engagement
A collaborative approach, with a focus on mentoring and developing others

Why WSP?

At WSP, you’ll be part of a global engineering and professional services firm with a strong local presence. Our Mining team is collaborative, technically strong, and focused on delivering practical outcomes for our clients.

Access to national and global expertise and projects
A strong focus on career development and progression
