Join the Civmec Team

A pivotal technical leadership role, The Lead Mechanical Engineer will shape the direction of mechanical engineering across our naval ship programs, establishing design authority and ensuring the delivery of robust, high‑quality engineering solutions.

The successful candidate will uphold and advance our engineering standards, provide authoritative oversight throughout the full engineering lifecycle, and drive seamless integration between engineering, manufacturing, and external partners.

• Plan and manage team capability, resourcing, and workload to meet project demands.
• Prepare cost estimates and support project budgeting activities.
• Support recruitment, development, and mentoring of the mechanical design team.
• Ensure effective coordination across engineering disciplines, manufacturing teams, subcontractors, and suppliers.
• Monitor, track, and report on engineering activities and deliverables.

• At least 12 years experience in mechanical engineering, ideally within complex or regulated ship building environments.
• Knowledge of classification society rules for mechanical ship systems.

• Strong problem-solving skills with a high level of attention to detail.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
• Ability to manage competing priorities and deliver outcomes in a fast-paced environment.
• Experience in shipbuilding in the defence sector (highly desirable)
