We are seeking an Engineering Geologist/Geotechnical Engineer to support and lead components of ground investigations and geotechnical deliverables across civil, Defence, and infrastructure projects in Western Australia. This is a hands-on role suited to someone who is technically capable, field-experienced, and ready to take ownership of defined packages and work closely with senior staff.
Key responsibilities
- Plan and deliver ground investigations end-to-end, including scoping, methodology selection, scheduling, and coordination with drillers and specialist subcontractors.

- Complete engineering geology/geotechnical interpretation and reporting, including:
- Factual GI reports (logs, test schedules, QA summaries)
- Ground model development and parameter selection
- Geotechnical assessment inputs for design and construction (as required)
- Coordinate Laboratory testing programs and validate results for completeness and suitability.
- Apply strong quality and process discipline: checking, traceable calculations/assumptions, clear deliverable structure, and consistent record keeping.
- Contribute to multidisciplinary coordination with civil/structures/services teams (constructability, earthworks, pavements, drainage interfaces).
- Support client and stakeholder engagement, including briefings on findings, risks, and recommendations.
