Graduate Engineer - Urban Development

Start your civil construction career with hands-on project experience

Jaydo is a Victorian civil construction contractor delivering water, sewerage, drainage and related infrastructure works across Victoria. Our Urban Development team works across subdivision, council and civil infrastructure projects, with a strong focus on practical delivery, quality outcomes and long-term relationships.

We are looking for a motivated Graduate Engineer – Urban Development to join our team and support the delivery of drainage and civil works across subdivision and council projects.

This is a great opportunity for someone early in their engineering career who wants to learn how civil construction works in the real world, not just from behind a desk.

About the role

As a Graduate Engineer in our Urban Development department, you will work closely with an Area Manager, Engineers, Supervisors and site teams to learn and support the delivery of civil drainage projects.

You will be exposed to the full project environment, including planning, site coordination, documentation, subcontractor and supplier coordination, quality, safety and project reporting.

The role will give you the opportunity to understand how drainage contracts are delivered within the subdivision and council space, while developing your practical construction knowledge and project delivery skills.

What you will be involved in

You will support the team with:

• Understanding project scopes, drawings, specifications and contract requirements

• Assisting with project planning and coordination

• Supporting site teams with day-to-day project requirements

• Learning the process of drainage construction in subdivision and council environments

• Assisting with procurement, materials, suppliers and subcontractor coordination

• Tracking project progress, costs, quality and documentation

• Supporting safety, environmental and quality requirements

• Communicating with supervisors, project teams and other stakeholders

• Learning how to identify and resolve practical delivery issues on site

This role will suit someone who is keen to get involved, ask questions, learn from experienced people and build a long-term career in civil construction.

About you

You may be a recent engineering graduate, final-year student, or someone early in your civil construction career.

We are looking for someone who is:

• Practical and hands-on in their approach

• Motivated to learn the civil construction industry

• Interested in drainage, subdivision and council infrastructure works

• Willing to spend time on site and understand how work is delivered

• Organised and able to manage time effectively

• Able to show initiative and follow tasks through

• A good communicator who can work with both office and site teams

• Reliable, curious and willing to take responsibility as they develop

While technical ability is important, we are particularly interested in someone with the right attitude. This role would suit a practical person who wants to understand how projects are built and is prepared to learn from the ground up.

What we offer

At Jaydo, you will be supported by experienced project and construction leaders who understand the importance of developing the next generation of civil construction professionals.

We offer:

• Hands-on experience across real civil construction projects

• Exposure to drainage, subdivision and council works

• Supportive training and development

• Guidance from experienced Project Managers, Engineers and Supervisors

• A practical learning environment with strong site exposure

• Career development opportunities within the Urban Development team

• The chance to build a long-term career with an established Victorian contractor

This is a great opportunity for a Graduate Engineer who wants more than a purely office-based role and is looking to build strong practical construction knowledge.
