You’ll be part of a team focused on keeping communities connected, supporting generation, distribution, network asset management, works delivery and both short and long-term planning.

Your Role In Action

Manage customer funded works from quote through to handover, including customer liaison, finance coordination and quality assurance. Prepare distribution work packages that meet safety, standards, budget and delivery requirements. Maintain asset data, update drawings and ensure systems are accurate and aligned to requirements. Work with contractors, suppliers, Regional Service Providers and internal teams to support safe and timely delivery. Travel across regional WA as required to support project delivery and operational outcomes.

What You’ll Bring

Distribution network design experience, ideally within a utility or power industry environment. Experience preparing technical work packages, scopes and cost estimates for network projects. An Advanced Diploma/Degree in Electrical Engineering or an electrical trade qualification. A practical, action oriented approach, with the ability to work autonomously and solve problems in an evolving environment.
