Australia may have difficulty attracting project managers and surveyors to work on regional projects like Inland Rail and an expansion of the Snowy Hydro scheme as a talent shortage pushes up fees for infrastructure specialists to as much as $3000 a day, headhunters warn.
Multibillion-dollar infrastructure projects like Sydney's WestConnex motorway and Melbourne's Metro Tunnel are "soaking up talent", said Mark Sloan, a partner at Watermark Search International.
Recruiters are finding it relatively easy to tempt international engineers and project managers to work in Sydney and Melbourne because people want to work on "landmark projects" like the $12.5 billion Sydney Metro, Mr Sloan said.
"There's a real attraction for people in coming here to deliver that kind of project," he said.
"They're game changing, they're city changing projects and people want to be associated with that ... it's the type of thing that can make your career."
Watermark recently placed a deputy project director to deliver part of the Sydney Metro from UK agency Transport for London who was interested in the complexity of the rail system, Mr Sloan said. "The attraction for him certainly wasn't the salary."
International competition
But Mr Sloan said it would be "really hard to staff" regional projects like Snowy Hydro – which the federal government plans to expand to create energy storage facilities that will avert power blackouts – and the proposed $10 billion Inland Rail freight line with international professionals because people from overseas preferred to live in "beautiful cities".
Australian projects also had to compete for people with other innovative projects around the world, some of whom preferred to work in countries where they don't have to pay taxes. "If you want a life-changing sum of money, you'd go to the Middle East," he said.
A boom in public transport projects means Australia is delivering an unprecedented number of motorways, light rail lines, underground metro systems as well as new freight and passenger rail lines simultaneously.
NSW, which has been selling off ports and electricity networks to pay for new urban infrastructure, is expected to overtake Queensland and Western Australia in 2016-17 to become the country's largest engineering construction market, a position it has not held since 2004-05, according to BIS Oxford Economics.
Road construction is expected to overtake mining and heavy industry construction from 2018-19 with a 25 per cent share of the total construction market by the end of the decade, the research and consulting group said.
Higher salaries
Government agencies are struggling to compete with the private sector to hire project delivery directors because private sector salaries are much higher.
Public sector project directors earn salaries of between $380,000 and $440,000 annually but private sector directors can earn up to $600,000 annually, plus bonuses worth up to $240,000, according to Watermark.
Consultants on infrastructure projects could earn between $2500 and $3000 a day, but some government agencies were dumping consultants and bringing jobs in-house to reduce costs, Mr Sloan said.
Project directors switched jobs less frequently than people in some other professions because once hired, they typically preferred to finish a project so they could take credit for its successful delivery. "Nobody is going to step out of a project in the middle of it."
The government's abolition of the 457 visa program is not expected to significantly hurt the availability of engineers to work on big infrastructure projects, because many engineering specialisations – including civil, structural, transport and electrical – would still be allowed to work in Australia under the proposed new visa scheme.
