Structural Manager – Lead, Earn & Shape an Established Brisbane Consultancy

50+ Years Market Leadership | Profit Participation & Equity Pathway | Structured Succession

Are you an experienced structural engineer with leadership ambition and a commercial mindset? Here’s your chance to step into a senior role where your expertise, initiative, and client relationships don’t just deliver projects — they drive profit, growth, and equity.

Why This Role Rewards Ambition
This is not a typical management position. You’ll inherit a technically outstanding team, long-term client relationships, and a profitable business — all while having the freedom to grow revenue, influence strategy, and directly benefit financially.

The Platform You Can Build On

• Established & Profitable — Over 50 years of uninterrupted operation in Brisbane’s competitive structural market
• Proven Systems — Well-defined processes, workflows, and knowledge transfer frameworks
• Client Trust — Long-term relationships built on quality and reliability, not price competition
• Team Excellence — A skilled, experienced technical team ready for strong leadership

Entrepreneurial Opportunity

• Profit Participation — Share in the success from day one
• Equity Pathway — Clear transition to director ownership within a structured timeline
• Revenue Growth Impact — Your client relationships and strategic initiatives directly influence financial outcomes
• Leadership Freedom — Shape team culture, client engagement, and growth strategy in an established, low-risk environment

Leadership Responsibilities

• Manage and inspire a team of structural engineers and technical staff
• Maintain technical excellence and quality assurance standards
• Nurture and grow established client relationships
• Drive business development through existing networks and new opportunities
• Collaborate with retiring manager to ensure seamless succession and knowledge transfer

Structured Pathway Forward

• Year 1: Competitive salary + profit share + 12-month mentorship with retiring manager
• Year 2: Director appointment + equity participation opportunity
• Long-term: Clear ownership succession plan

What We’re Looking For

• 10–20 years’ structural engineering experience with project leadership
• Proven capability leading technical consulting teams
• Strong professional reputation in Brisbane’s buildings engineering community
• Solid technical foundation across diverse structural projects
• RPEQ qualification (or clear pathway)
• Commercial and risk management experience

Why Now?
The retiring manager has built an exceptional, high-performing team with a strong client base. We are seeking a strategic, entrepreneurial leader who can grow the business, protect its legacy, and reap the rewards of their effort.
