We're privileged to work with, live alongside and respect the culture of First Nations peoples who first understood the energy of this land.

• Evaluating engineering deliverables to ensure alignment with defined scopes, timelines, and quality standards
• Delivering customer-centric engineering and technical support by providing expert advice, tailored recommendations, and practical solutions
• Fostering and sustaining strong, collaborative relationships with key stakeholders, including Energy Planning, Business Development, Engineering Standards and Plant, Project Management, Operational Technology, System Operations, and Regional Asset Managers
• Providing engineering endorsement and formal approval of technical documentation, including drawings, reports, standards, derogations, and dispensations

You will have:

• Bachelor's degree (or higher) in Electrical Engineering, or equivalent
• Eligibility for corporate membership of Engineers Australia
• Significant experience in an electric utility design role
• Demonstrated ability to proactively build relationships with customers, key stakeholders, peers and colleagues
• Significant experience with transmission and/or distribution line design
• Effectively work within a multi-disciplinary project team, engage with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders and negotiate with suppliers and vendors to safely deliver projects to the approved quality, cost and schedule
