Okay, let’s calculate this. Scott has 13 years of experience in civil engineering, which is a solid foundation. He also has experience in project management and contract management, which are valuable skills. However, his role as an Engineer - Project Delivery at City West Water doesn’t seem to have a direct salary range available. Considering his skills and experience, I would place him in the mid-tier of civil engineers. According to various sources, civil engineers with similar experience in the Greater Melbourne Area can earn between $80,000 and $120,000 per year. Taking into account the industry demand for civil engineers with sustainability expertise, I would estimate Scott’s hourly rate to be around $125.
