Senior Water Resources Stream Designer
We are seeking a Senior Water Resources Stream Designer to lead the planning, design and delivery of stream restoration, watercourse improvement and related civil infrastructure projects. This role will suit an experienced water resources professional who can combine technical expertise, practical design judgement and strong project coordination skills to develop resilient, environmentally responsible solutions. You will work across projects involving stream rehabilitation, flood mitigation, bank stabilisation, drainage networks, culverts, erosion and sediment control, and natural channel design.
Your responsibilities will include preparing concept, preliminary and detailed designs; undertaking hydrologic and hydraulic assessments; developing grading, alignment, cross-section and erosion protection solutions; and producing clear technical drawings, specifications, calculations and construction documentation. You will review survey, geotechnical and environmental information, identify design risks, and ensure that proposed solutions meet relevant standards, regulatory requirements and consenting conditions. The role will also involve site inspections, construction support, technical reviews, design assurance and responding to contractor queries. You may be required to manage project scopes, programmes, budgets and deliverables while coordinating input from engineers, ecologists, planners, surveyors, contractors and other stakeholders.
Applicants should hold a degree or equivalent qualification in civil engineering, water resources engineering, environmental engineering or a related discipline, with substantial experience in stream, river or stormwater design. Professional registration or progress towards registration is desirable. You will bring strong knowledge of hydrology, open-channel hydraulics, fluvial processes, flood risk management, erosion and sediment control, and relevant design software such as AutoCAD, Civil 3D, GIS and hydraulic modelling packages. Experience with natural flood management, nature-based solutions and regulatory approvals would be advantageous. Excellent written and verbal communication skills are essential, along with the ability to mentor less experienced team members, manage competing priorities and make sound technical decisions. A proactive, collaborative approach and commitment to health, safety, quality and environmental outcomes are expected.
