About the project

Set against breathtaking countryside, this role combines meaningful work with fresh country air, stunning scenery, and the chance to encounter Australia’s native wildlife in its natural environment. It’s an ideal opportunity for those seeking a unique lifestyle experience while being part of a significant and rewarding project. The Cressbrook Dam Safety Improvement Project is a critical piece of infrastructure for the Toowoomba Region, focused on strengthening the dam’s ability to safely manage extreme flood events and protect downstream communities. Delivered through an Alliance between Seymour Whyte, SMEC and Toowoomba Regional Council, the project will raise the dam crest, upgrade filtration systems and improve overall flood capacity in line with modern engineering standards

We are a successful civil contracting business who has been operating in Australia for over 35 years. With the agility and personal connection of a Tier 2, yet the expertise of a Tier 1, and the enhanced resources of one of the largest, world-class construction companies, VINCI, our employees and clients get the best of three worlds.

As a progressive, leading civil engineering firm built on the strong foundations of our unique history, we engage, enable and empower our people to be better. With you, we are altogether stronger, in building the future we want.
