Are you ready to take the next step in your HVAC career? This is an exciting opportunity to lead a local engineering team within a respected national mechanical services contractor delivering landmark Design & Construct projects across the commercial, education, retail and mixed-use sectors.

The Role
As the QLD HVAC Engineering Lead, you’ll manage local engineering resourcing and guide a small team of engineers and draftspersons in the design and delivery of HVAC mechanical projects typically valued between $1–$20 million. You’ll play a key role in ensuring project excellence — balancing leadership responsibilities with hands-on involvement in technical delivery when required.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead and mentor a local team of mechanical engineers and draftspersons in project delivery
  • Manage resourcing and technical oversight for HVAC Design & Construct projects
  • Maintain strong collaboration with project managers, estimators, and site teams
  • Provide hands-on design input and technical guidance across project stages
  • Liaise with clients and consultants to ensure high-quality outcomes
  • Work closely with national engineering resources when required to deliver complex projects
About You
  • Degree-qualified Mechanical Engineer with a background in HVAC building services
  • Prior experience working with a mechanical services contractor (essential)
  • Proven ability to manage or mentor engineers and coordinate technical output
  • Strong design knowledge across chilled water, ventilation, and DX systems
  • Confident communicator with a practical, solutions-focused approach
  • Desire to grow into a senior leadership capacity within a progressive business
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone seeking to make a tangible impact within a business that values technical quality, teamwork, and professional growth. You’ll enjoy autonomy, national support, and exposure to a diverse project portfolio.
