Westera Partners is a leading consulting engineering firm with offices across Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria. We not only deliver high-quality, value-driven civil, structural, and environmental solutions — we’re equally recognised for the way we look after people —both our clients and our team. We pride ourselves on building trusted relationships, fostering professional growth, and creating a workplace where excellence and collaboration are pillars of our long-standing success.
Due to increasing demand for our services, we are looking for highly motivated Structural Drafters with 8+ years of experience to join our Gold Coast structural engineering team. Our team consists of talented and capable professionals who love what they do, along with supportive leaders in a people-focussed workplace.
You’ll enjoy working with respected industry professionals and possess the agility required to consistently deliver high-quality work across a diverse range of projects, including:
- Luxury and Prestige Residential
- Townhouses and Multi-residential (3–9 storeys)
- Commercial and Industrial Developments
- Aged Care and Educational Facilities
- Community & Service Clubs
- Civil Infrastructure & Bridges
- Cert IV in Drafting and/or Associate Diploma in Engineering
- 8+ years relevant experience, ideally gained within a QLD workplace.
- Advanced skills in AutoCAD with some exposure to Revit.
Key to your success is your ability to problem-solve technical issues and communicate proactively with delivery managers and engineers. You will have exceptional attention to detail and take pride in producing drawings and documentation of a standard that is second to none. You understand the challenges that can arise on structural design projects and are able to comfortably demonstrate an ability to keep cool while maintaining pace and the quality of your work. Our Gold Coast team values effective communication and collaboration, so we are looking for senior drafters who can demonstrate success working as an integral part of a close-knit team.
At Westera, individual efforts are recognised and strong performance is rewarded with highly competitive pay and the conditions to perform at your best. Your drive to deliver outstanding services while growing as a professional will be supported with plenty of formal and informal mentoring from industry leaders who genuinely care about you and your career aspirations. While we remain focused on delivering outstanding services to our clients, we also foster a culture that values work-life balance and team wellbeing. Regular social events and team gatherings provide opportunities to connect, celebrate achievements, and continuously improve.
We welcome applications from experienced structural drafters who are interested in contributing to the depth of technical proficiency within our dynamic consultancy. To be considered, you must be able to provide evidence of the following:
- Recent experience applying Australian design standards on projects delivered in SEQ (detail which local authorities and asset owners you have been exposed to)
- Cert IV in Drafting and/or Associate Diploma in Engineering
- Valid Australian Work Rights
We’re excited about bringing another talented Structural Drafter onto the team at our Gold Coast office and so we will move quickly to interview candidates who demonstrate suitability.
