Job Description:

You might have heard of us, and you might not have, but we definitely want to hear from you!

Why? I thought you’d never ask.

We are partnering with a Tier 1 in Perth on a Rare Earth’s Refinery project. The result of this engineering project will be the production of a rare earth oxide that is critical across a range of industries and technologies including electric vehicles, sustainable energy, advanced electronics, medical and defence applications. And we are now at the stage where we need someone to take us to the next level and bring in fresh ideas whilst utilising the global expertise of Fluor.

• A compensation package that will afford you (pardon the pun) to focus on your role and not see you looking at Seek. (double pun).

• Basically, a role that can turn into a career if you want it to. It’s your choice!

Your Day:

• You will be working on a project scope that has been divided into two key areas.

• As the project heads into its detailed design phase, your responsibility will be to lead the mechanical team to deliver the engineering design for one of these two areas.

• Develop and maintain relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
