  • Contributing to progress reporting and short‑term planning

  • Strong understanding of digital engineering, GPS machine control, and QA processes
  • Ability to work across multiple work fronts in a fast‑paced environment
  • Strong communication, coordination, and problem‑solving skills
  • Leadership experience for Senior Engineer/Sub Agent roles


What’s On Offer

  • Market‑leading salary + uplift
  • Accommodation/travel package available
