Sinclair Knight Merz (SKM) is a long established,
employee-owned professional consulting organisation
with offices in major business centres across the globe.
We have significant resources, financial standing and
technical capability, and are on track to meeting our goal
of becoming a global top-ten privately-owned firm within
the next five years.
In Melbourne, Victoria, SKM is well-known for having one of
the largest and most established multi-disciplinary Rail
consultancies. As an industry recognised centre of excellence
for rail signalling design engineering, we service a range of
clients both locally and across Australia.
With considerable work on the horizon, we are looking to
expand our team of consulting engineers to include further
specialist expertise in managing and delivering our current
program of exciting signalling design projects.
The scope of the work will range from the provision of
concept and detail designs, specifications, cost estimates and
technical recommendations for the construction, testing and
commissioning of signalling infrastructure.
As a signalling design professional, there is also the
opportunity to consult on specific areas of expertise including
train control systems, interlocking, automatic signalling and
level crossing protection.

Engineering and either currently hold, or be eligible for, IRSE
design licensing.
We’re not only offering the technical challenge that will keep
you inspired, we’re also offering ongoing supported

method of stopping people getting too close to the arriving trains is used - a man with a very loud whistle stands on
the platform looking along the yellow line.
