About the role
We’re looking for an experienced Project Engineer to join our Industrial team, supporting a growing and long-term portfolio of regional industrial work in Invercargill . This is a site‑based delivery role offering real responsibility, strong client exposure and the backing of Beca’s wider national capability. You’ll work closely with key Southland-based clients across the dairy and heavy industries, delivering a mix of sustaining capital and larger regional industrial projects. This is a fantastic opportunity to broaden your project delivery experience and lead work in a highly visible regional environment with genuine end‑to‑end ownership and autonomy.
What you'll bring

- You take pride in being hands-on, practical and trusted to deliver.
- Experience managing projects up to $5 million, including scope, programme, cost and risk
- The ability to work independently in a regional delivery environment
- A client-focused, practical mindset, with strong problem-solving skills
- This is a key career opportunity for someone looking to further develop as a Project Engineer, with a clear pathway toward increased responsibility and leadership as Beca’s Southland presence continues to grow.
- 8+ years’ experience ideally within industrial brownfield or operational environments
