About you

You will have substantial supervisory experience within water resources, utilities, heavy civil construction or a closely related field.

You should be an organised and confident leader who can motivate diverse teams, make sound decisions under pressure and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. The ability to read plans, use project documentation and contribute to planning and forecasting is required. Proficiency with standard reporting and scheduling tools is desirable.

A relevant technical qualification, trade background or equivalent practical experience is preferred.
