ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY

We are currently seeking applications from Environment Coordinators or Advisors to join our team on the Spark North East Link project. This role will be responsible for ensuring project compliance with relevant environmental legislation, regulations, and contractual obligations related to the construction, design, and operation of the North East Link Project. This role involves developing, implementing, and maintaining project environmental plans and procedures, and performing all required environmental monitoring and assessment in line with the environmental management system.

QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE

• Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Engineering, Science, Sustainability, or other associated discipline.
• Postgraduate qualifications (e.g., graduate certificate or diploma) in Environmental Engineering, Risk, Sustainability, Project Management, or other associated disciplines.
• Infrastructure Sustainability (IS) Training for Professionals.
• Experience in project system implementation.
• Audit management practices.
• Specialist knowledge in environmental management and sustainability.

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS & ABILITIES

• Sound understanding of environmental management and sustainability principles and their application within the construction industry.
• Experience in quantitative and qualitative risk assessment and monitoring of risk controls and actions in project delivery and implementation.
• Knowledge of environmental legislation and statutes, with the ability to interpret relevant laws and regulations.
• Ability to lead high-level investigations involving multiple internal and external parties.
• Proficiency in monitoring, reviewing, investigative review techniques, reporting, and continuous improvement on performance and compliance.
  Whilst we are keen to hear from candidates with proven infrastructure project experience or experience working for a Tier 1 or Tier 2 Contractor to be a part of an iconic construction project in Melbourne, Victoria, we also will consider applicants that are seeking to enter or re-enter the industry.

We value diversity, inclusion and equity through providing a working environment where all employees feel included, valued, and free to bring their different skills, experiences and perspectives.

• Assist in developing and implementing strategies and initiatives that foster a high-performance culture and employee engagement, including defining performance and behavioral expectations for individuals, teams, and the overall project.
• Monitor and manage operational activities to ensure they meet environmental requirements.
• Oversee the daily delivery of the project’s environmental functions.
• Conduct environmental reviews, field inspections, and site assessments.
• Support the SHEQ manager by liaising with regulatory bodies, ensuring compliance, and solving high-level issues by advising operational management on environmental matters.
