Opportunity expired
Lendlease is a globally integrated real estate and investment group with core expertise in shaping cities and creating strong and connected communities.
The Adventure:
This role is situated in Katherine, surrounded by nature, culture and experience an adventure. Situated in Katherine is Nitmiluk National Park (Katherine Gorge) where you are able to take a cruise up the gorge, canoe at your leisure or go on a walking track. Visit Edith falls for a great day out with swimming, bush walking, picnics and camping areas.
If you want hands-on a cultural experience, you must see the Top Diji Cultural experience where you will have an opportunity to learn about Aboriginal Culture from Manual Pamkal and create your own rarrk painting. You will learn how to start a fire with sticks and throw a boomerang!
The Project:
Lendlease is proud to be partnering with the Australian Defence Force to deliver $1bn+ of critical infrastructure upgrades and redevelopment at RAAF Base Tindal. The project will enhance air-to-air refuelling and air support capabilities, ensuring we can support critical ADF operations – everything from air combat missions to responding to natural disasters both at home and throughout our region.
As a Graduate Site Engineer, you will have the opportunity to work alongside the wider construction project teams responsible for coordinating and monitoring the activities and efforts of contractors and suppliers onsite to ensure construction is completed within schedule and cost. This will involve supporting the project across safety, quality, cost and program.
The Program:
As a participant of the two-year Lendlease Graduate Program you will be supported through a structured learning and development program, rotations, dynamic managers, various on-the-job activities, networking and social activities – allowing you to build lasting relationships with both senior leaders and fellow graduates.
Our grads are anything but ordinary. They are community-builders, change-makers, and record-breakers. But, most importantly, they are themselves. At Lendlease, we celebrate individuality - it’s what makes us unique. From living breathing workplaces, to flexible hours that fit around your life, we’re making room for you to be you.

I like how varied my day to day responsibilities are and how they allow me to work with different people with different skills and expertise.
As a temporary undergrad role, I felt like I was often floating about and would have preferred a higher degree of responsibility.
Largely part of the fit out team, I have been responsible for building/pushing programmes, ensuring works are meeting technical specs., documenting quality and sequencing works for partitions, waterproofing, painting and frames/doors. On top of this, I have had exposure to commercial roles through assessing variation claims for subcontractors on-site.

Construction & Property Services
Lendlease is a globally integrated real estate and investment group with expertise in shaping cities and creating strong and connected communities.
Projects are very interesting and exciting. Systems are well defined, rigorous, and make sense most of the time. People are smart and passionate about the industry.
Everyone is understanding of my lack of knowledge in the industry due to lack of experience. They are welcoming and willing to teach the basics about construction.
Getting assigned to different roles/areas of the business which helps provide myself more information on the various areas and give me an idea on what area I would want to pursue in the future
Long hours
I think the worst thing for me personally is the commute, I spend upwards of 2.5 hours driving per day and if I was to take Public transport it would be 4 hours. However I do have a good understanding of sacrifice and believe it is worth it.
I would like to receive more feedback.
