n
You've built strong technical depth in Secondary & Protection engineering. Now's the opportunity to have a bigger influence on the team and capability around you.
n
This role combines technical leadership with people leadership across major HV Substation, Transmission, Distribution and Renewable Energy projects.
n
You'll lead an established group of Secondary & Protection Engineers and Designers, while helping grow the capability as the national team expands.
n
You don't need to have held a formal Team Leader title before. If you're operating at Senior or Principal level, enjoy mentoring engineers and are ready to take greater ownership, this could be your next career move.
n
What's On Offer
n
n
Build the Team Around You - Play a genuine role in developing the S&P; capability, from mentoring and recruitment through to how work is delivered.
n
Stay Technically Connected - Keep your technical influence across complex protection and control engineering rather than moving into a purely people management role.
n
National Project Portfolio - Work across multiple major HV infrastructure and renewable energy projects rather than being tied to one programme or asset.
n
Shape Engineering Standards - Have a say in technical governance, checking processes and engineering best practice as the capability develops.
n
Broader Leadership Exposure - Work closely with Primary Design,



Grid Connection, Civil, Structural, Drafting and Project Delivery teams.
n
Accelerate Your Career - Step into a position with greater influence over people, projects and the future direction of a growing national power business.
n
Strong Pipeline Ahead - Join during a period of strategic growth, giving you both long term stability and the opportunity to make an impact.
n
n
What You'll Be Doing
n
n
Lead technical delivery across secondary systems, protection, control, communications and SCADA design for HV infrastructure and renewable energy projects.
n
Develop and mentor Engineers and Designers while managing workload, technical quality and team capability.
n
Provide technical review and governance while supporting clients, proposals, recruitment and future growth.
n
n
What Will Make You Successful
n
n
Electrical Engineering degree with strong Secondary & Protection experience across Transmission, Distribution, Renewables or HV Substations.
n
Strong capability across protection and control schemes, secondary systems design and relevant Australian network standards.
n
Senior or Principal level experience with an interest in developing people. Previous formal team management is useful, but not essential.
n
n
Why Apply?
n
If you're technically robust but want more influence over the people and engineering capability around you, this gives you the platform.
n
You'll still be close to the engineering while building a specialist team, shaping how work is delivered and helping develop the next generation of S&P; Engineers.
