You are a chartered civil engineer with a strong track record in the successful delivery of design and construction of 3-Waters projects in a consulting or local authority.

You have a strong technical focus with experience in three water conveyance projects including the design of pressure pipelines, gravity pipelines, pump stations and well heads.

Water at Beca


Our 150-strong multi-disciplinary Water team works across the '3-Waters' of water supply, wastewater and stormwater, as well as surface waters and irrigation, partnering with clients spanning the municipal, industrial, transportation, commercial, mining and agricultural sectors.

Our work ranges from optioneering, design, to commissioning, handover, and operational advice.

Together we make things happen on projects throughout New Zealand, Australia, the Pacific and South-East Asia.

As our clients continue to call on our expertise, we're right there beside them and are looking for more great people to join our team in Dunedin.


We recognise that one of the challenges people can face in building their career is effectively managing work and home life.

Flexible working empowers our people in the how, where and when they work so they can better integrate work and home.

There is no single picture of what flexible looks like from coming in earlier or later to avoid peak traffic congestion, working from home, taking leave without pay, working part-time hours or many other arrangements and options.

For roles across our Water team, we are open to discussing options on how this could work for you.
