Graduate and internship programmes to design a better future

Those who dare to explore new frontiers step from the impossible into the possible.

They challenge the status quo. They’re unconventional. They ask what if? What’s next? And why not? And they have fun along the way.

From advising on the world’s largest lithium-ion battery to store renewable energy. To using digital technology to plan and restore transport access to communities after major earthquakes. To designing Australia’s tallest engineered timber office building where people are at the heart of the design.

If you choose to work with us, you’ll have the flexibility, choice and freedom to be you – so that together, we can re-imagine engineering and design a better future for humanity. Answers to the world’s most complex challenges are out there. All that’s needed is to start exploring new frontiers today.

This year, we were honoured to win the Australian Financial Review’s Top 100 Graduate Employers ‘Most Popular Engineering and Resources Employer Award’. In 2018, we were listed in LinkedIn’s Top Companies 2018, the only engineering consulting firm to make the list. And in 2017, we were ranked #5 in the Australian Financial Review’s Most Innovative Companies list.

To start your journey, apply for a role with us today!
