A trusted partner in civil infrastructure delivery.
Founded in Brisbane in 2011, CSG has grown to have professional civil representatives with experience in all regions of Queensland and Northern NSW's vast road network, with deep knowledge of road, bridge, disaster recovery and infrastructure programs.
Our story
Engineers first. Advisors always.
Civil Services Group was founded with a clear vision: to provide practical, experienced-led project delivery services that go beyond traditional consultancy. We are engineers and project managers ourselves — not recruiters.
Since inception, we have built a reputation for delivering complex civil infrastructure projects across Queensland — from regional road upgrades and major transport programs to emergency response and disaster recovery works. We serve TMR, local councils across Queensland and Northern NSW, and infrastructure owners requiring specialist principal-side support.
Our strength lies in the ability to tailor our teams to the project — hand-selecting individuals with the necessary expertise and capacity to undertake each engagement. Every CSG engagement is built around one principle: "Protecting Principal interests through disciplined, compliant and outcome-focused contract administration."

We understand that there are times when you win a new project or demands change on an existing project where you quickly need additional resources to hit the ground running — without the time and expense of recruiting permanent staff.
CSG has invested substantially in systems and procedures to attract and maintain significant resources through our networks and targeted programs. All candidates are screened for relevant skills, experience, qualifications and history prior to being engaged on any project or assignment.
Our resources are available for short to long-term contract assignments — to suit a peak period or to deliver a whole program or project. We are also able to fully coordinate FIFO, DIDO, site-compliant vehicles, travel and accommodation where required.
Why CSG over a typical recruiter?
Our dedicated engineering consultants have a deep, hands-on background in the industry — saving you the hit-and-miss experience of the typical sales-oriented recruitment market.
All resources have the backup, mentoring and support of CSG's principal engineering and project management core group. As your portfolio grows, we have options to transition contractors to permanent staff or run a targeted recruitment campaign.
