Senior Civil Engineer - Pavements – Auckland
Our Transport and Infrastructure work is at the heart of our business. Developing and implementing solutions to complex problems, our team is helping shape the world we live in across the Asia Pacific region – from highways to ports, bridges to tunnels, airports to rail and site development. Together we are transforming our world. We are passionate about what we do and the culture we have developed. The more diverse we are, the better our ideas, strategies and client solutions will be and the more we will better represent our world. We know we are stronger when people from different backgrounds and perspectives work together. We are committed to growing an environment where our people have equal opportunity to build a career that reflects their ability & passions and believe in their potential, feel they belong and can be their best selves.
We are proudly employee-owned, and after a century of operation, employee ownership remains key to our future. It underpins our positive, purpose-driven, and growth-oriented culture; it sets us apart in our markets and gives meaning to our social contract. We are accountable, have each other's backs, don't let others down, and strive for excellence in everything we do.
We recognise that one of the challenges people can face in building their careers is managing work and home life. We encourage you to find an arrangement that works for you, whether part-time, working from home or flexible working arrangements. We are open to discussing how this could work for you for roles across our Transport & Infrastructure team.
Te whiwhinga mahi | The opportunity
We want to speak to pavements-focused civil engineers with experience with road and heavy-duty pavement design who are curious about joining our team to be part of our growth.

Working in our Pavements team each day will provide a variety of activities and challenges; overall, this is a role that will see you:
- Be responsible for delivering the pavement component for projects on time and to budget while meeting client's needs and expectations.
- Participate in road inspections as part of delivering the annual network maintenance renewal designs.
- Collate pavement information from numerous sources, develop pavement designs based on client's needs and produce comprehensive pavement design reports.
- Communicate positively and effectively, ensuring that team members, managers and clients are well-informed about your project tasks and deliverables.
- Collaboratively undertake conceptual designs through to detailed design, and provide input into contract procurement and construction administration with small and large teams.

Ko wai koe | About you
Your passion, design and problem-solving mindset will be matched with a desire to work on meaningful and significant projects across New Zealand in a multidisciplinary business. Through your experience, you have sound knowledge of pavement investigation and materials testing techniques and understand how this information is used in the design process. You are known by your peers for your in-depth knowledge of Austroads, roading specifications and mechanistic design software (e.g. CIRCLY). You will have an inquiring mind, able to problem solve, think laterally and be a team player. How you work is also important to us – we will value your enthusiasm and motivation to continue learning from your peers and more senior team members.
