- Preparing and contributing to competitive tenders and estimates to secure new project work.

- At least 3-4 years in a project management role within the electrical or industrial contracting sector.
- A trade background (A-Grade Electrical / Electrical Mechanic Licence) is preferred, with demonstrated project management experience.
- Proven commercial capability - tendering, estimating and winning work, not delivery alone.
- Exposure to complex electrical, automation, instrumentation and infrastructure projects, ideally including brownfield or shutdown environments.
- Comfort operating across both capital project and maintenance/service delivery.
- The autonomy to run multiple projects independently, balanced with the judgement to escalate and seek input when needed.
