Black & White Engineering Advances Asia Pacific Expansion with New Australia Office

Melbourne has been selected as a strategic office base to serve clients across Australia and the Asia Pacific region, focused on critical buildings and infrastructure for data centres.

Expanding Engineering Capability in Australia

With a global team of over 1,000 professionals across 18 locations worldwide,  Black & White Engineering delivers high-performance engineering design solutions for complex, mission-critical environments.

The new Australia office in Melbourne forms part of a wider growth strategy that includes expansion across Europe and Asia Pacific, alongside planned entry into North America in 2026.

This expansion provides Black & White with the opportunity to create new engineering jobs in Australia, further strengthening the companies engineering capabilities across APAC. It also supports the increasing demand for data centre and infrastructure expertise across the region.

Strengthening APAC Leadership to Support Regional Growth

Black & White Engineering has recently announced APAC leadership developments designed to reinforce regional capability as the business scales.

As part of this strategy, Chief Operating Officer and Executive Board member Steve Tode will relocate from Dubai to Singapore, strengthening executive oversight and alignment across the region.

Supporting regional delivery

In the medium term, Steve will also assume responsibility as Singapore and APAC Area Director, overseeing operational matters alongside his Group role. This structure provides continuity and clarity of leadership as the regional footprint expands, including the launch of Australia.

Commenting on his transition, Steve Tode said:

“I am excited by the opportunity to work in the APAC region. I am grateful for the trust placed in me by the board to assist in achieving not only our business and client goals but also to provide the right environment for success for the Black & White team to grow their careers and provide them with leadership opportunities as we expand regionally.”

The APAC leadership team will continue to be supported by experienced senior management, with further appointments planned, including an APAC Data Centre Director, to meet sustained demand across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Japan and the Philippines.

Growing the Team: Building Engineering Jobs in Australia

As part of the expansion, Black & White Engineering will begin recruiting across multiple engineering and support disciplines. Engineering jobs in Australia and additional supporting roles will play a key role in supporting regional delivery and long-term business growth.

Professionals joining the Melbourne team will have the opportunity to help establish Black & White Engineering’s presence in Australia while working as part of a collaborative global consultancy.

Australia represents the next step in Black & White Engineering’s commitment to building future-ready teams across APAC and beyond, delivering advanced engineering solutions that support a sustainable digital world.
