Life At Birds

Our Culture

Celebrates authenticity, openness, and a can-do attitude. We believe in getting the job done efficiently, while never losing sight of what makes us unique – a friendly, down-to-earth approach that fosters collaboration and innovation.

Affectionately known as ‘Birds’, Robert Bird Group started from humble beginnings in Brisbane, and our culture reflects this unique heritage. We’ve retained the relaxed and approachable spirit of our origins while evolving into a global engineering force.

More than just colleagues, we’re a close-knit community of professionals, or ‘Birdies.’ We come together over ping pong battles, team events, and volunteer work, creating a supportive work environment where your career flourishes, personally and professionally.

At RBG, we prioritise the wellbeing of our employees and understand the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance. As we continuously assess and refine our programs based on employee feedback and industry best practices, we aim to provide an environment that encourages innovation, fosters creativity, and nurtures both personal and professional growth.
