Here’s what you can expect at Calibre

Want to work with people that really care? What you do matters and so do you. Your efforts and achievements will be recognised – you’ll never just be a number.

  • A knowledgeable team of peers and managers.
  • Generous employee referral incentives.
  • Staff or contractor, you’ll be respected – we’re all one team.

Join us. Make great projects work 

How would you like to make valued contributions to engineering / design outcomes across a diverse portfolio of projects – some with a total investment cost of up to $250M?

Want the chance to be more involved with client interactions or have some input on proposals?

If so, this would be a great development opportunity for you to broaden your skills beyond the technical arena. If you're happy to remain in a purely technical role, we can continue you on this trajectory.

Working closely with Project Managers, you’ll be providing technical expertise and advice across all stages of project design – Order of Magnitude, Pre-Feasibility Studies, Feasibility Studies, Detailed Design and Execution. Your role will be key to identifying and defining engineering solutions for our clients.

We’ll also be asking you to:

  • Mentor and develop other Civil Engineers.
  • Undertake storm water investigations, flood studies and devise mitigation strategies.
  • Ensure compliance with Calibre, industry and client standards.
  • Manage your own time across projects to ensure deliverables are met.
  • Identify and report on any potential deviations from agreed scope of works.

You’ll get to work on a project portfolio that provides exposure to a variety of engineering design scenarios including mine enabling infrastructure works (haul roads, access road realignments, drain diversions) and NPI Infrastructure (MEM Workshops, AN Facilities, HV/LV wash areas, Laboratories).

Thrive with us! We hope you'll bring    

  • Degree qualification in Civil Engineering (professional membership status – Engineers Australia).
  • Consulting engineering experience – at a Senior level.
  • A good understanding of design stages (OoM, PFS, FS, Execution).
  • Knowledge of modelling packages such as RORB, TUFLOW or HEC-RAS.
  • Well-developed interpersonal skills to influence, negotiate & build productive relationships.
  • A keen eye for detail, good time management and a knack for problem-solving.
  • Current right to work in Australia.

As a Senior Engineer, we’ll trust and empower you to guide others through technical challenges, identify workable solutions and mentor your way. You'll also be playing a valued role to help ensure we meet contractual requirements, manage risks and set high standards.

Why you should choose us

Calibre has many boomerang employees – people that leave and return. We also have some Engineers who have been with us for more than 8 years. This tenure speaks for itself, people genuinely enjoy working here.

We’re confident you’ll enjoy being part of our sustaining capital group. There’s monthly toolbox meetings to share updates and celebrate wins, and our senior leadership team is very approachable. You will be supported to grow and succeed in your role – even if it means moving on to another operations group within Calibre.

With a successful track record of over 20 years in the design and execution of $30bn+ in projects, our comprehensive capability covers the entire project life cycle. Calibre has delivered projects for all the big mining operators, with tailored services across asset management, replacement, refurbishment and brownfield expansions. This has enabled them to sustain and expand their operations.

Be yourself at Calibre

We want every individual to truly feel like they belong when at work. Diversity and inclusion is a key part of our culture and success.
