ENGINEERING POSITIONS
We are currently looking for a Graduate Engineer to join our Structural team, and also a Work Experience Student / Internship for a 3rd year university student looking to undertake their Industrial Experience over the Christmas/New Year holidays.
Graduate Engineer
About you:
You’ll be finishing your last university exams in Australia in 2018 and you’re looking to enter the workforce at the start of 2019.
You’ll have strong academic results with demonstrated strengths in the more structurally-orientated subjects such as analysis and design. You’ll be competent and confident with first principles concepts, being able to demonstrate a working knowledge of the theory behind bending moments, shears, deflections and so on. Strong and confident communication and writing skills are a must. You’ll have undertaken your 12 weeks’ industrial experience in a design office, ideally one that does similar work to Partridge. You’ll have an interest in architecture and a desire to be involved in architecturally-driven projects. A double degree with Architecture (such as that on offer at USYD) or an Architectural Major (such as that on offer at UNSW) is desirable but certainly not essential.
The role:
You’ll be joining one of our structural teams where you’ll become an integral “hands on” engineer, assisting in the analysis, design, and site supervision of our projects. You’ll be mentored by our senior personnel and develop your skills as we involve you in all aspects of a project’s lifecycle. You’ll be analysing primarily concrete, steel, and timber structures; designing framing solutions and member sizes; going to site to inspect and sign-off on the builder’s work; and there’ll be plenty of scope for learning, development, training, support and involvement. Dilapidation inspections and report writing will also be amongst your tasks. The role has enormous potential for growth and development, and we gear our Graduate Engineers for them to progress up through our company so that they go on to become Senior Engineers, Project Managers, Associates and Directors.
Working with us:
We have a strong, fun office culture and a great team of engineers and draftees in our Structural section. There is also opportunity to have involvement in our Remedial and Event divisions. Partridge believes in delivering a full and excellent service to our clients, built on trust and long-term relationships. A role with Partridge requires that we, as engineers, go the extra mile in providing the best solution, the best guidance, the best instruction, the best advice, the best documentation, the best drawings, the best reports, and – above all else – the best service to architects, builders, clients, home-owners, project managers, schools, commercial operators, and government departments.
Engineering Intern / Work Experience Student
About you:
You’ll be studying Civil/Structural engineering (or doing the double degree with Architecture) and you’re currently in your penultimate year, needing to complete your 12 weeks’ engineering Industrial Experience module between November 2018 and February 2019.
You’ll have strong academic results with demonstrated strengths in the more structurally-orientated subjects such as analysis and design. You’ll be competent and confident with first principles concepts, being able to demonstrate a working knowledge of the theory behind bending moments, shears, deflections and so on. Strong and confident communication and writing skills are a must.
The role:
You’ll be joining one of our structural teams where you’ll be mentored and trained by senior personnel. The purpose and intention is to gain a broad and active insight into consulting engineering and you’ll be “hands-on” with real projects and real design work. It is a paid position. The role will chiefly involve assisting our Design Engineers with analysing structures; building concrete and steel models in software for analysis and design; checking steel shop drawings; carrying out design calculations; and developing inhouse software and analysis tools for our Structural division.
