Talent International has partnered with a leading ASX-listed manufacturing company to source an experienced Senior Electrical Engineer for a major upgrade project based in Erskine Park.

Key Responsibilities:

• Electrical and Instrumentation (E&I) engineering across allocated project packages

• Combination of project coordination and onsite, hands-on work
• Reporting to the Engineering Manager and leading a small team (junior engineer/draftsperson)

• Direct site engagement - this is not a desktop or office-only position

Key Requirements:

• 5-10+ years of experience in heavy industry, specifically in process line environments
• Steel industry process line experience highly desirable
• Experience in other steel or paper processing or similar industries also highly valued
• Proven track record in hands-on panel installation, commissioning, and site troubleshooting
• Strong understanding of Australian electrical standards, risk management, and project delivery methodologies
• Siemens product experience (especially PLCs or drives) highly regarded
• Autodesk proficiency (for electrical design/drafting) strongly preferred
• Ability to design and/or draft is a significant advantage
• Strong leadership, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills

What's On Offer:

• Work under a highly respected Engineering Manager in a collaborative and driven team
• Clear potential to transition into a long-term or permanent position
• Opportunity to move into commissioning leadership roles as the project advances
• Long-term pipeline of work well beyond the initial 12-month contract
