Job Description

Job Description:

Recently purchased by an international engineering firm, URS, Systemwide is a highly regarded specialised consultancy providing strategic and operational advice to private corporations and public sector agencies on diverse aspects of railway planning and management throughout Australia. Systemwide continues to have a reputation for delivering high-quality insight supported by detailed analysis.

Some exciting projects we have recently completed for our clients include:

• Developing long-term transport strategies for South East Queensland for the Queensland Government and playing a vital role in the design of a new landmark, city-changing underground rail link through Brisbane.
• Advising mining companies on new strategies to haul coal and iron ore and using sophisticated modelling to understand the capacity of their entire supply chain.
• Evaluating various long-term plans for the Sydney rail network and investigating how a new high-tech signalling system could improve the capacity of that network.
• Providing rail planning, strategy and advisory services for a private consortium in their successful bid to operate Melbournes metropolitan rail franchise for the next 15 years

As the firm is continuing to grow, we have opportunities for new consultants. There is excellent potential for future career development with high achievers rapidly given the chance to work directly with clients and to manage consultancy projects.

This is your opportunity to have a direct involvement in the strategic planning of Australias railways and mining supply chains, develop new products and services and, as part of a large international organisation, explore potential markets overseas. Being part of a young, dynamic firm using state-of-the-art software and analysis techniques will provide you with an ideal opportunity to fully exploit your potential.

A variety of structured career framework pathways mean you will be exposed to a wide range of business activities, and will give you the control to steer your progression through the company in order to achieve your career ambitions. Systemwide is a supporter of further education with several of our staff members currently undertaking Masters Degrees in a variety of disciplines.

Responsibilities/Objectives

Your role will more specifically involve:
• being part of a team to service the market lines;
• assistance with multi-disciplined transport studies;
• assisting and undertaking data collation, analysis and technical related modelling exercises;
• being trained/mentored by more experienced staff;
• assistance with tenders and proposals;
• participating in workgroup initiatives including business development and technical activities; and
• generally supporting project teams in achieving stated goals.

Additionally, while your position has been confirmed as above, from time to time you may be required to perform other related duties, provided that they are consistent with your skills, competencies and expertise.
