Transportation affects every aspect of daily life, no matter where you are in the world! Jacobs is made up of a team of multi-disciplinary rail experts who work on complex projects around the globe. We’re driven by the extraordinary as well as the seemingly mundane, working with our partners to make the world more connected and more sustainable for everyone.
At Jacobs, we're challenging today to reinvent tomorrow. As demand grows across the transport and resources sectors, we're expanding our Rail team in Perth and are looking for a Senior Associate Rail Engineer to help drive the next chapter of our growth in Western Australia.
This is a senior role for a rail professional with strong technical leadership and established network and experience in Western Australia to help shape and grow Jacobs’ rail business in the mining and government transport sectors. You'll play a key role in growing our rail presence, developing new opportunities and delivering high-value outcomes for clients across Western Australia and the broader ANZ region.
What you'll do
You'll combine rail technical expertise to lead projects with business development and market leadership experience to identify emerging client needs, creating opportunities and converting relationships into sustainable growth.
Key responsibilities include:
- Building and strengthening relationships with mining and transport clients while identifying emerging opportunities and market trends.
- Leading and supporting pursuits, proposals and work-winning activities in partnership with client account, sales and technical leadership teams.
- Providing technical leadership across multidisciplinary rail projects, ensuring safe, high-quality and commercially successful delivery.
- Leading project delivery, design and project management activities across a diverse portfolio of rail infrastructure projects.
- Leveraging Jacobs' global technical network and Global Integrated Delivery (GID) teams to deliver best-in-class solutions for clients.
- Mentoring and developing rail professionals while contributing to the growth of Jacobs' rail capability across Western Australia and Australia & New Zealand.
Experience across mining sustaining capital programs, decarbonisation initiatives, rail studies, depots, stabling facilities or marshalling yards will be highly regarded.
This opportunity offers a rare combination of technical leadership, client engagement and market influence. At Jacobs, you'll have the platform of a global consultancy while helping shape the future direction of our rail business in Western Australia, supported by specialist rail expertise from across Australia, New Zealand and global Jacobs network. We foster a culture of belonging where people can grow, collaborate and bring innovative thinking to some of the region's most important infrastructure challenges. Guided by our values, we do things right, challenge the accepted, aim higher and live inclusion every day.
