At the Christchurch City Council, we are driven by our passion for creating a better future. We believe in working as one yet staying true to ourselves. Help make a positive impact on our community while enjoying a rewarding career of opportunities. Christchurch City Council, where it's possible to love what you do.

The Technical Services and Design Unit is a multi-disciplinary department with design, construction and surveying professionals that are experts in their fields. We are dedicated to creating smart designs for sustainable public infrastructure and buildings as well as demonstrating excellence in all aspects of project delivery, professional services and team work.

Reporting to the Team Leader Architectural & Structural Design you will:

- Provide structural design to enable the delivery of the Council's capital programme;
- Give pre-design and/or post design structural engineering advice to Council Business Units;
- Manage projects and construction contracts; and
- Support the Senior Structural Engineers as well as the rest of the Technical Services and Design Department.

You'll be working in a busy, supportive team environment with direct access to a diverse range of infrastructure design experts. The variety of projects you work on will give you the opportunity to make your mark on our City's public structures. Our team's specialist work areas include:

- Transport structures such as retaining walls, pole foundations and bridges
- Marine structures such as jetties, wharves and coastal protection
- Three waters structures such as culverts, drains, reservoirs and pump-stations
- Small to medium community buildings
- Parks, arts, heritage and recreational structures

Experience in transport and/or marine structures will be a particular advantage. You'll hold a BE Civil or equivalent qualification and have at least 6 years relevant post graduate experience and demonstrate strong design skills. This is the opportunity to see your projects through from design options through to completion while working alongside and learning from some of our City's experts in structural engineering.

Problem solving is half of the fun at the Council, and our driver is providing robust infrastructure that is cleverly and creatively designed. If you're not afraid to question assumptions while remaining committed to cross-discipline integration and collaboration then join us to achieve the best possible outcomes for our City.
