At KCB, our purpose is Sustaining the Future. We bring this purpose to life through practical, risk‑informed solutions to complex environmental and engineering challenges. Guided by our values of Passion, Integrity, and Excellence, we focus on building trusted relationships, delivering high‑quality work, and supporting our clients and communities over the long term.

We are growing a thriving mechanical team known for passionate, high‑integrity people delivering technical excellence across tailings and waste storage facilities, water management structures, dams, and mine infrastructure projects. We offer the benefits of a global consultancy paired with the agility, flexibility, and access to senior leadership that larger firms often struggle to provide.

Who We’re Looking For

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior Mechanical Engineer to work on the design, analysis, and delivery of mechanical systems for tailings storage facilities (TSFs), slurry pipelines, and mine infrastructure projects.

The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in piping systems, pressure vessels, and hydraulic design, with strong experience in EPC project execution across mining, oil & gas, and industrial sectors.

We’re looking for someone who demonstrates:

Passion – for meaningful work, helping clients, and developing strong technical teams
Integrity – trust, respect, accountability, and professionalism
Excellence – delivering robust, defensible, risk‑informed engineering solutions

What You Will Do

Lead mechanical design for tailings pipelines, pump stations, and slurry transfer systems.
Perform hydraulic calculations, stress analysis, and support planning for process piping.
Design and review pressure vessels, storage tanks, and custom spool configurations.
Complete steady‑state pipeline hydraulic design using Excel or software such as AFT Fathom and Bentley Hammer.
Perform surge analysis using tools such as Bentley Hammer or AFT Impulse.
Perform pipeline peripheral designs related to thrust, thermal expansion, valve and flow meter stations and service crossings

What You Bring

Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical).
NER / CPEng / RPEQ certification.
10–15 years of mechanical engineering experience, ideally within mining and tailings infrastructure.
Background in slurry pipeline design or strong interest in developing this expertise.
Experience preparing CAPEX and OPEX estimates.
Tailings pipeline design and hydraulic modelling.
Pressure vessel and tank design.
CFD modelling for wear prediction and slurry optimisation.
Familiarity with slurry pump systems (e.g., Warman) and interstage piping.
Microsoft Project, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and AutoCAD.

What We Offer

Additional Superannuation: 2.5% extra to secure your future;
Income Protection Insurance: Peace of mind for you and your family;
Parental and Volunteer Leave: Support for your personal and community commitments;
Novated Leasing: Flexible vehicle leasing options;
Hybrid Working Policy: Balance work and life with our flexible approach;
Social and Mental Well-being Initiatives: Programs to support your overall well-being;
Training and Development Opportunities: Continuous growth and learning; and
Additional incentives may be available dependent on the performance of the company, business unit and individual.

This is an opportunity to take on a senior role in a growing region, influence the direction of our mechanical practice in WA, and work on world‑class, high‑impact projects.

Are you up to the challenge? Please apply online.
