Senior Project Engineer

Senior Project Engineer / Project Engineer – Pre-Contract

Freyssinet Australia | Melbourne, Victoria (On-site)

Victoria | Pre-Contract | Office-Based Engineering Role

If you're an engineer who's done your time on site and wants to move into the front end — tendering, methodology, commercial strategy — this is the role.

We're looking for a Project Engineer or Senior Project Engineer to join our Victorian remedial team in a pre-contract focused position. You'll work across civil, structural, and remedial scopes, owning the technical and commercial development of tenders from first look through to award.

About the Role

You'll sit at the intersection of engineering, estimating, and delivery interpreting client requirements, building methodologies, coordinating design inputs, and making sure our proposals are technically credible and commercially sharp. Primarily office-based, with site exposure where needed.

What You'll Be Doing

• Leading technical and commercial inputs across tenders and proposals
• Analysing project documentation, drawings, and specifications
• Developing construction methodologies and supporting cost plans
• Coordinating with designers, subcontractors, and suppliers for pricing and technical data
• Supporting risk assessments and value engineering
• Preparing tender submissions for management review
• Handing over awarded projects to delivery teams with full technical alignment

What You'll Bring

• Degree in Civil or Structural Engineering
• Experience in estimating, tendering, or pre-contract engineering — civil, structural, or remedial
• Site delivery background — you understand how projects actually get built
• Commercially aware and analytically sharp
• Strong written communication — you can write a methodology that wins work
• Self-directed and organised without needing to be managed

We offer:

• Senior role with exposure to high‑profile, technically challenging projects
• Supportive and experienced leadership team
• Long‑term career pathway in a specialised engineering field
• Attractive employee benefits including performance bonuses, the VINCI employee share program, and being part of a global specialist contractor
• High level of autonomy and trust to lead your work
• Competitive remuneration package, plus laptop and mobile phone.

Freyssinet Australia is a specialist contractor delivering advanced solutions in remediation, post-tensioning, and structural engineering. As part of the Soletanche Freyssinet and VINCI Groups, we combine global expertise with strong local delivery to support Australia’s most critical infrastructure.

Freyssinet is committed to diversity and inclusion. We recruit based on skills, motivation, and cultural fit, and welcome applications from all backgrounds.
