- Proven experience in bridge or structural inspection.
- Solid understanding of materials, construction methods, and structural behaviour.
Why apply This is a long-term opportunity to work on complex infrastructure assets that matter. You'll join a capable and collaborative team, gain exposure to major structures across the region, and open the door to future asset management and leadership pathways.
If you're looking for variety, technical challenge, and work that genuinely makes an impact, we'd like to hear from you.
