Our bodies and environment all depend on water; it is the building block that supports all life. Water issues are becoming increasingly prominent as we struggle with disparity between water availability and demands, water pollution, and competition for limited water resources. At Jacobs, we recognize these challenges, and our engineers, scientists, and planners are working together with clients to find the right solutions to their water challenges.
Jacobs has an opportunity for an Associate Water Engineer to join the team in Cairns. In this role, you will be responsible for providing excellent consultancy, design, and engineering services in the Northern Australia portfolio - Cairns, Darwin, and Townsville – as well as to the wider Jacobs business across Australia and New Zealand.
You will collaborate with commercial, project management, and technical leaders to create opportunities for Jacobs to plan, develop, deliver, and operate a range of projects within the water infrastructure and associated markets. You will manage projects to ensure they are delivered on time, on budget, and to client satisfaction.
Here's what you'll need:
* Degree in Civil Engineering (mandatory requirement)
* National Professional Engineer Registration (mandatory requirement)
* Registered Professional Engineer Queensland (mandatory requirement)
* Good interpersonal skills, with the ability to develop others and build strong client relationships
* Understanding of industry standards and best practices

We're an equal opportunity employer and encourage candidates of diverse backgrounds to apply. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are strongly encouraged to apply. Jacobs aims to provide cultural safety at our interviews.
Don't meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people from marginalized or underrepresented backgrounds are less likely to apply for jobs unless they meet every qualification. At Jacobs, we're dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you're excited about this role but your experience doesn't align with every requirement in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway.
