Job Description:

Senior Level Geotechnical Engineer – Melbourne/Adelaide

The Company

Kleinfelder Australia is a geotechnical and environmental consulting firm providing professional and technical services for geotechnical engineering, land and groundwater contamination assessment and remediation, environmental planning and approvals, ecology, heritage, land management and rehabilitation, bushfire planning, and design.

As part of the global Kleinfelder Group, an environmental, engineering and science-based consulting firm, we utilise the experience of over 3,000 employees globally. With almost 100 staff operating across Australia, we deliver our projects with local and international experience.

The Opportunity

As Kleinfelder continues to expand, we are seeking an experienced and motivated Senior Geotechnical Engineer to support our Victorian and South Australian geotechnical services. Based in our Melbourne office, this role is a key strategic appointment focused on strong project delivery and client relationship growth.

This opportunity is ideal for a senior geotechnical professional who thrives on delivering high quality work, building strong client relationships, identifying, and converting opportunities, preparing high-quality tenders and proposals, and positioning Kleinfelder as a trusted advisor in the Victorian market.

As a leader within the Melbourne office, you will also mentor junior staff, support multidisciplinary collaboration, and play a role in shaping the long-term growth of our geotechnical offering across Victoria and South Australia.

Key Responsibilities

Manage geotechnical projects from investigation through to design and construction, ensuring high standards of quality, safety, and commercial performance.
Lead and review geotechnical proposals, designs, and reports to ensure technical excellence and support successful project delivery.
Build, strengthen, and maintain long-term client relationships across public and private sectors.
Mentor and support junior and mid-level engineers to develop technical depth and confidence within the team.
Collaborate with multidisciplinary colleagues across Australia to deliver integrated, client-focused solutions.
Support business development activities to expand Kleinfelder’s geotechnical presence in Victoria and South Australia, including opportunity identification, networking, and strategic market positioning.

About You

We are looking for a senior geotechnical professional with proven capability in delivering high-quality work, preparing tenders and proposals, and expanding client portfolios, backed by strong technical leadership. You are commercially astute, confident in client-facing interactions, and recognised as a trusted advisor. You balance relationship-building expertise with consistent technical delivery and people leadership.

What we are looking for

Bachelor’s degree in Geotechnical, Civil, or related Engineering (postgraduate qualifications highly regarded).
10+ years’ consulting experience in geotechnical engineering, with a strong technical background and investigation focused experience.
Demonstrated success in team growth and business development, including writing and coordinating tenders and proposals, winning work, and growing revenue streams. Experience in generating external client business preferable to servicing an internal engineering client.
Experience in geotechnical investigation, design, and analysis (slopes, soil nails, retaining walls, foundations, etc.).
Preferably an understanding of integrated investigations integrating geotechnical and contaminated land projects.
Demonstrated leadership in health, safety, and quality.
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, including report writing and technical presentations.
Professional recognition such as RPEQ, CPEng, or equivalent (desirable).

What Kleinfelder offers you

Kleinfelder offers many benefits to ensure you are rewarded and respected for the part you play in the success of the business. These include but are not limited to:

Highly competitive salary packages,
Reward and recognition programs including bonuses,
Paid overtime, (as per the Kleinfelder Overtime Policy),
Flexible work arrangements (e.g., hybrid working) to encourage autonomy and life balance,
Company Paid Parental Leave,
Purchase an extra two weeks of annual leave per year,
Australia day/public holiday swap,
Formal mentorship and training programs (Team Leader, Project Manager, Leadership),
Access to our health and wellness initiatives (e.g., Employee Assistance Program, reimbursed flu shots/skin checks etc.),
Professional career and technical development programs incl, study assistance with external and internal learning,
Opportunities to participate in Corporate Social Responsibilities (volunteering, charity, community support, RAP Committee),
Professional membership support,
Professional, friendly, and supportive ecosystem team environment and culture.

Kleinfelder prides itself with being an equal opportunity employer where we value and celebrate diversity and inclusion. We encourage individuals from all cultural backgrounds including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders to be part of our organisation and apply.

If this sounds like the opportunity you have been looking for and would like any further information, please email our HR team at [email protected]

To be eligible for this position you must have unrestricted full legal rights to work in Australia.

Kleinfelder will be managing this process and unsolicited applications from third party recruiters will not be accepted.
