Engineer, Senior and Principal levels , these roles will support significant network growth and investment driven by
major new connections, including large-scale data centres and other high-demand customers . You’ll play a key role in assessing future electricity demand, identifying network constraints and developing the distribution and sub-transmission solutions required to safely and reliably accommodate major new loads. The Role
Working within the
electricity and energy infrastructure sector , you’ll undertake and contribute to network planning activities across distribution, sub-transmission, zone substation and upstream networks. Your responsibilities will include: Monitor and forecast
network loading, utilisation and future capacity requirements Undertake
network modelling, load-flow and contingency analysis Assess the network impact of
major recent connections and large electrical loads Identify emerging network constraints, risks and capacity limitations Develop planning requirements for
distribution and sub-transmission network augmentation Assess requirements for
zone substations and upstream terminal station infrastructure Develop and evaluate technically and economically viable network augmentation options Apply appropriate
risk assessment and management techniques
to network planning decisions Prepare and contribute to
RIT-D and RIT-T assessments and reports Develop recommendations to support network investment and long-term planning Work closely with engineering,
