We are seeking a skilled Structural Drafter, Roads & Highways, to support the delivery of infrastructure projects from concept through to construction. The successful candidate will prepare accurate, detailed structural drawings and documentation for bridges, retaining walls, culverts, drainage structures, road structures and associated civil works.

Strong attention to detail, sound organisational skills, clear communication and the ability to manage multiple deadlines are essential. A proactive approach to problem-solving and a commitment to technical accuracy will be highly valued.
