You may have been part of some big projects before, but this work is legacy-building. Your skills will be instrumental in designing and delivering cutting-edge solutions that enhance mobility, sustainability, and safety for millions of people.
In this role, you'll:
Be responsible for developing and delivering road or traffic infrastructure and/or maintenance projects to achieve road safety, asset management, and network efficiency objectives.

Implementing appropriate procedures, guidelines, processes, and practices, in collaboration with TfNSW specialists, to deliver a high level of workplace health and safety and environmental management on projects and contracts. Coordinating resources to respond to issues and incidents on the road network. This position involves project delivery, site work, and travel across the Hume Region, and at times you may be required to work away from home in order to deliver remote projects.
