Auckland City, New Zealand Beca Full time

**Our Geotechnical Team**

Developing and implementing solutions to complex problems, our team is helping shape the world we live in across the Asia Pacific region - from highways to airports, from buildings and reservoirs to bridges and tunnels. Together we are transforming our world. We are passionate about what we do and the culture we have developed. The more diverse we are, the better our ideas, strategies and client solutions will be and the more we will better represent our world. We know that we are stronger when people from different backgrounds and perspectives work together. We are committed to growing an environment where our people have equal opportunity to build a career that reflects their ability and passions and believe in their potential, feel they belong and can be their best selves.

We are proudly employee-owned and after a century of operation, employee ownership remains key to our future. It underpins our positive, purpose-driven and growth-oriented culture; it sets us apart in our markets and gives meaning to our social contract. We are accountable, we have each other's backs, we don’t let each other down, and we strive for excellence in everything we do

**The opportunity**

Our Geotechnical team works across geotechnical engineering, engineering geology and hydrogeology. As a national team of over 130 people, we are excited for the opportunities ahead of us and are well placed to help Aotearoa advance and protect our world for future generations. We know that our work is more than foundations, ground and water, it's about developing sustainable solutions that support our communities and a healthy environment as well as continuous improvement — by doing things better every day, we make the everyday better.

We’re looking for an experienced Geotechnical Engineer who is ready for their next career move to join our Geotechnical team in Auckland. You will be joining a passionate team in a varied role that includes managing and delivering projects with support from our technical specialists, liaising with clients, and guiding and growing more junior members of the team. You will plan and execute field assignments as well as prepare technical proposals and reports, undertake design and design management, liaise with clients and provide a senior review. Working alongside a national team of Geotechnical specialists across New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific Islands, the forward workload is strong and varied.

Work-life balance means a lot of different things to different people and we know that it’s not always easy juggling work with everything else life throws at us. This is why we are happy to discuss flexible working arrangements for all opportunities in the Beca team.

Aligned with the level of the role, we envision that the base salary component will be between NZ$80,000 - $130,000.00 depending on skills and experience. The role is full time and permanent, with minimum guaranteed hours of 40 hours a week.

**About you**

We’re looking for someone who loves to learn and share knowledge - someone who can bring a fresh perspective to ensure the development of the people around them and who constantly seeks better practice for the overall quality of our work and our client experience. Bringing your background from consultancy or contracting you are an experienced Geotechnical Engineer or Engineering Geologist with at least five years of experience. You have developed strong written and verbal communication skills, and an enthusiasm for getting things done and a willingness to constantly learn and develop. You will be passionate about the opportunity to grow others and be motivated by being in leadership roles with the ability to ‘own’ the delivery of quality client outcomes throughout the region.

**What we offer**

A career with Beca will provide you with:

- Professional development opportunities.
- A supportive and caring work environment where you can bring your whole self to work.
- Flexible working arrangements to balance your personal / family commitments.
- Opportunities to learn from our industry experts and technical gurus across the Asia-Pacific.
