Entry Environmental Engineer - Water Services; New Grads

We are seeking an enthusiastic Entry Environmental Engineer to join a water services team in 2027. This opportunity is suited to recent graduates or students completing a degree in environmental, civil, chemical, water resources, or a related engineering discipline. You will contribute to projects that support the planning, design, assessment, and delivery of sustainable water and wastewater infrastructure while developing your technical skills under the guidance of experienced professionals.

Your responsibilities may include assisting with water and wastewater treatment studies, hydraulic and environmental assessments, technical calculations, data analysis, field investigations, and the preparation of engineering reports, drawings, specifications, and approval documentation. You may also support asset assessments, catchment and drainage studies, environmental compliance activities, site inspections, sampling programs, and the evaluation of practical solutions for improving water quality, resource efficiency, and operational performance.

The role will involve working with multidisciplinary project teams, clients, contractors, regulators, and community stakeholders to help deliver projects safely, accurately, and on schedule.

To be successful, you will have, or be on track to obtain, a relevant engineering degree and a genuine interest in water, environmental protection, and sustainable infrastructure. Strong written and verbal communication skills, sound analytical and problem-solving abilities, and confidence using Microsoft Office are essential. Experience with engineering, hydraulic, GIS, data analysis, or design software is advantageous but not required. You should be organised, curious, safety-conscious, and willing to learn in both office and field environments.

A valid driver’s licence and the ability to undertake occasional site travel may be required. This is an excellent starting point for a graduate engineer seeking structured development, meaningful project experience, and the opportunity to contribute to resilient water services and positive environmental outcomes.
