Senior Water Resources Stream Designer
We are seeking a Senior Water Resources Stream Designer to lead the planning, design and delivery of stream restoration, natural channel and water resources projects. This role will suit an experienced civil or water resources professional with strong technical expertise, sound commercial awareness and a practical understanding of stream behaviour, catchment processes and environmental requirements. You will work on projects ranging from urban drainage and flood mitigation to stream rehabilitation, erosion control, fish passage and nature-based solutions.
Key responsibilities will include developing concept and detailed designs; preparing hydraulic and hydrologic assessments; undertaking channel capacity, floodplain and erosion evaluations; and producing drawings, specifications, technical reports and construction documentation. You will coordinate site investigations, surveys, modelling and geotechnical inputs, while ensuring designs are constructible, cost-effective and aligned with relevant standards, consent conditions and regulatory requirements. The role will also involve reviewing technical work, providing guidance to junior staff, managing design risks, contributing to project programmes and budgets, and supporting construction teams through site inspections, design clarifications and quality assurance.
Applicants should have a relevant degree or equivalent experience in civil engineering, water resources engineering, environmental engineering or a related discipline, together with substantial experience delivering stream, river, drainage or flood management projects. Professional registration or progress toward registration is desirable. You will need demonstrated capability with hydraulic and hydrologic modelling tools, CAD and design documentation, as well as confidence interpreting survey, environmental and geotechnical information. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills are essential, along with the ability to work collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams and manage competing priorities. A proactive approach, attention to detail and commitment to safe, sustainable and resilient outcomes will be highly valued.
