Careers

We are a successful civil contracting business who has been operating in Australia for over 35 years.

As we prepare for this next chapter, we’re seeking an experienced Site Engineer with Procurement experience to join our Pre-contracts team. This is a rare opportunity to be part of our growing team in South Australia, driving tenders and EOIs to success, and then stepping into a pivotal role on-site to deliver the project.

• Preparing quote requests and collecting and analysing quotes.
• Ability to form and build relationships over the phone.
• Ability to read technical drawings and specifications typically used in major civil construction projects.
• Perform quantity calculations for tender input.
• A strong attention to detail and ability to operate on a high-volume workload is essential.

• Financial wellbeing – competitive remuneration, annual performance bonuses, salary continuance insurance and employee share program.
• Career development – training, mentoring programs, and leadership development program.

Many of our projects are located in regional areas, therefore all applicants must hold a current Driver’s License and have their own transport.

Seymour Whyte is an Equal Opportunity Employer, and we encourage applications from candidates with diverse backgrounds, including veterans.
