• •Contribute to structural engineering design across bulk materials handling, mining, resources and heavy industrial projects .
• •Work alongside senior and experienced engineers to deliver structural designs and engineering packages from concept through to detailed design.
• •Undertake structural analysis, calculations and design documentation with support and guidance from senior team members.
• •Collaborate with engineers, designers and other disciplines to develop practical and efficient engineering solutions.
• •Build your exposure to clients and project stakeholders through participation in meetings, design reviews and project discussions.
