Full Job Description

Senior Principal Structural Engineer (Bridges) – Perth

Lead bridge design in WA—while shaping the team and the client outcomes.

WSP is growing our Bridges team in Perth. This is a senior technical leadership role for a bridge/transport structures specialist who enjoys solving complex design challenges, guiding quality outcomes, and building trusted client relationships.

You’ll work with our Bridges, Aviation and Roads team on major WA transport infrastructure—partnering with multidisciplinary specialists locally and drawing on WSP’s national and global expertise when it adds value.

Role snapshot

Location: Perth CBD (flexible working available)
Discipline: Bridges and transport structures (roads/rail)
Level: Senior Principal—technical authority, delivery leadership and client relationships
Delivery: design leadership, reviews/sign-off, mentoring and governance

The role

As a Senior Principal Structural Engineer (Bridges), you will lead the design and delivery of complex bridge and transport-structure solutions across WA. You’ll act as a technical authority for quality and safety, provide leadership to project teams, and work directly with clients and stakeholders to shape scope, solve challenges, and deliver trusted outcomes.

Success in this role means consistently high technical quality, strong risk management, and designs that are safe, sustainable, constructible and aligned to client objectives.

Based in our Perth CBD office, you’ll collaborate with industry-leading engineers and contribute to a supportive, high-performing team culture.

What you’ll do

Lead bridge and transport-structure design from concept to detailed design, including options assessment and design development
Act as technical authority: undertake/oversee design checks, reviews and technical governance of drawings, models and reports
Own delivery outcomes for your projects—scope, programme, budget, risk and resourcing
Be a trusted client partner: lead technical discussions, resolve issues early and identify opportunities to add value
Support business growth through bids and proposals—technical inputs, estimates, win themes and delivery approaches
Coach and mentor engineers, building capability and a culture of strong engineering judgement and ethical practice
Champion HSEQ: embed safety in design, ensure compliance with WSP HSEQ systems and project requirements
Drive digital delivery and innovation—effective use of 3D modelling, model-based outputs and modern workflows

What you’ll bring

Must have

Degree in Civil or Structural Engineering (or equivalent)
Extensive consulting experience delivering major bridge/transport-structure projects
Proven leadership across technical delivery (design management, reviews, governance) and team development
Strong knowledge of Australian Standards and WA client requirements (Main Roads WA, PTA) for bridge design
Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills (clients, reviewers, contractors and internal teams)
Experience with digital delivery and 3D structural modelling workflows (model review, coordination, model-based outputs)
Commitment to safety in design, ethics, quality and continuous improvement

Nice to have

Chartered status (e.g., CPEng or equivalent) and/or registration (or a clear pathway to achieve it)
Experience leading bids, frameworks or key-client accounts in the transport sector

Why WSP

Lead meaningful WA transport projects with real community impact
Join a well-established, growing Perth Transport team with strong local clients
Access national and global technical specialists to support complex challenges
Flexible working arrangements and clear technical leadership pathways
