"Beca offers loads of scope for opportunity, as well as support for individual passions that help contribute to the group’s success."
Based in our Melbourne office, Melody manages Beca's Australian Planning and Urban Design team. She specialises in infrastructure projects, particularly in managing the planning components of complex projects in the power, water, transport, government and education markets.
Melody's particular passion lies in community and stakeholder consultation. A recent example of this was the upgrade of Brunswick Terminal Station, where Melody led the delivery of a project to secure planning approval. This project was particularly complex due to the sensitive site interfaces and required a wide range of specialist inputs and a comprehensive consultation program.
Melody originally joined the team in Beca's Wellington office and then transferred to the Melbourne office in 2006. "My career is continually challenging and it is rewarding to be surrounded by so many talented and clever people who regularly keep passion and motivation levels high."
Melody especially enjoys working on large, multi-faceted projects and being able to participate in the multi-disciplinary teams that Beca offers to provide an integrated service for these projects.
