Reviews
Fair workload and expectations given my level of experience. Interesting with development opportunities
Services engineering, services design, site coordination
As a Site Engineer, my daily activities include coordinating with subcontractors to ensure timely product delivery within budget constraints. I review design specifications to ensure that civil work adheres to these standards, and I collaborate with the design team to address any issues that may arise. Additionally, I manage quality documentation, purchase orders, and invoices. I also plan for upcoming weeks, oversee concrete orders, verify reinforcement, and handle procurement tasks.

Pros and cons of working at John Holland
Pros
The best thing about working at John Holland is being able to work in projects that create meaningful changes in our society as well as work with like-minded people.
The culture around the team and the graduate program is amazing. Heaps of networking opportunities with the other graduates which is great.
The culture and support from People. The ample opportunities that the company provides to try new projects or to try different roles.
Wide range of projects that leave a lasting positive impact on the community.
Exposure to different projects and industries that I am exposed to in my normal day-to-day life.
Cons
The expectation to work very long hours permanently, on site, throughout the entire project.
Limited mobility across different teams/departments, people tend to specialise in an area and stay in the same role in their career instead of exploring different pathways.
It can be hard to transition if you are not used to being autonomous with your workload/tasks.
Extensive hours you will need to commit – early starts and late finishes, especially if based on site.
Company is so massive that you can get lost as another number.
