Are you a technically strong engineer looking to take your skills into a dynamic, investigative role? We're seeking a Forensic Engineer to join a specialist loss adjusting and advisory team, where your analytical expertise and engineering background will be key in uncovering the root causes behind structural failures and property damage.

About the Role

This role offers the opportunity to lead and coordinate forensic investigations into residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. You'll assess structural issues, identify causes of failure, and deliver expert reports to support insurance, legal, and remedial processes. It’s a role that blends site work, technical analysis, and client interaction.

Key Responsibilities

  • Conduct on-site investigations and forensic assessments of structural failures, water ingress, and construction defects.
  • Analyse building systems and provide cause-of-loss reports with detailed repair scopes and cost estimates.
  • Prepare clear, defensible technical reports for insurers, legal professionals, and clients.
  • Manage tender reviews, monitor projects, and liaise with stakeholders across legal, insurance, and construction sectors.
  • Maintain a high level of professional knowledge through continued learning and industry involvement.

What You'll Need

  • Bachelor's Degree in Engineering (preferably Structural).
  • Minimum of 2+ years’ experience in engineering, ideally within the built environment (residential, commercial, industrial).
  • In-depth knowledge of the Building Code of Australia and relevant standards.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail.
  • Excellent communication skills—able to clearly explain technical concepts to non-engineering stakeholders.
  • Ability to work autonomously and within a collaborative team environment.
  • Comfortable preparing expert reports and, where required, supporting testimony in legal contexts.

What’s On Offer

  • Engage in diverse and technically complex projects.
  • Work in a flexible, supportive environment with scope for professional growth.
  • Be part of a respected team that values initiative, quality, and service excellence.
