Work with us

Interested in truly making a difference with your career?
‍
We’re always looking for talented professionals to join our purpose-driven team, working with
like-minded clients to make a positive impact on the planet and community.

We specialise in planning, engagement and environmental assessment for major projects that put a dent in climate change.

We’re not your typical planning consultancy – we choose our projects and clients carefully and have no traditional hierarchy. We are small enough to be tight knit and know each other’s birthdays, but big enough to work on planet shaping projects. We value flexibility, integrity, diversity and innovation. And most of all, we want to have fun.

If this sounds like the place for you, please shoot us your cv at office@cogencyaustralia.com.au and we’ll be in touch for coffee.

Cogency specialises in planning, stakeholder engagement and environmental assessment for major projects that put a dent in climate change.

Why Cogency

Our culture is what makes us different. We're a close-knit, director-led team, and as part of RSK Group we have the backing and resources of a larger international organisation.

We value flexibility, integrity, kindness and innovation. We back each other. We learn together. And we make time to enjoy the work.

If you’re looking for a career that makes a real difference, you’ll fit right in.

How we work

We choose our people, projects and clients with care. There’s no traditional hierarchy here. We keep things simple and open. We’re small enough to stay close as a team and big enough to work on projects that shape the way Australia transitions to clean energy.

We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels safe, respected and supported. We celebrate different backgrounds, perspectives and experiences because they help us do better work.

Flexibility, trust, diversity and curiosity are at the heart of how we operate. And yes, we like to have fun along the way.
