Full Job Description

Bring your civil engineering expertise to the delivery of major projects that shape our community. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a team that delivers high-quality infrastructure across the Bellingen Shire.

About Us

Working with us means more than just a job – it’s an opportunity to make a real difference at a local level. We’re a small but impactful council known for innovation, collaboration, and community connection. With around 160 dedicated employees, our team is passionate about delivering services that support the people and places that make our shire special.

Bellingen Shire is a picturesque and diverse area located on the Mid North Coast of NSW, halfway between Sydney and Brisbane and just south of Coffs Harbour. Covering 1,605 square kilometres with around 10km of coastline, the region is renowned for its stunning natural beauty – from lush rainforests and pristine rivers to the World Heritage-listed Dorrigo National Park. Our towns and villages are known for their charm, creativity and strong community spirit.

Living and working here offers the perfect blend of lifestyle and purpose. With a focus on sustainability, cultural richness, and a warm, welcoming community, Bellingen Shire is an inspiring place to grow your career, enjoy work-life balance, and contribute to something meaningful.

The Opportunity

Bellingen Shire Council has an exciting Capital Works delivery program that will be delivered in the coming years.

Council’s annual Capital program is currently in excess of $50M, including exciting new projects such as the Urunga CBD upgrade, Summerville Road Detour Upgrade, Valery and Timboon RRTRP, Gordonville Slip Remediation and our annual road rehabilitation program and maintenance.

Reporting to the Civil Project Engineer, the Site Engineer will play a key role in delivering major capital and operational projects from scoping through to completion. The role is responsible for supporting Project Engineers and operational staff, managing subcontractors, and ensuring projects are completed on time, within budget, and to the highest standard of quality. You’ll be involved in every stage of the project life cycle - from planning and design through procurement, construction, handover, and defects management - while ensuring compliance with Council’s policies, processes, and governance requirements.

The ideal candidate will hold a Diploma in Civil Engineering, Project Management, or a related discipline, with demonstrated experience in civil infrastructure project delivery. A degree in Engineering will be highly regarded, along with experience in contract administration (GC21, AS4000 or AS2124), estimating, and applying NSW specifications. Experience with DRFA or TfNSW projects, soil and concrete testing, AutoCAD/design software, or community engagement will be an advantage. A current White Card and Class C Driver Licence are essential.

To succeed in this role, you will bring strong technical capability combined with the ability to manage people, stakeholders, and contractors effectively. You’ll need to demonstrate strong problem-solving skills, sound judgement, and the ability to negotiate and deliver practical outcomes. Strong written and verbal communication skills, along with confidence in using Microsoft Office and other project systems, will support your success. Just as importantly, you’ll be a team player who builds positive relationships and works collaboratively to deliver results that benefit our community.
