Seeley International is Australia's largest manufacturer of heating and cooling solutions. Our brands include Breezair, Braemar, Coolair, Climate Wizard and Convair. We have been engineering in Australia for more than fifty years, and we are now investing in a real automation transformation, not just maintaining existing lines.

The role

You'll report to the Production Engineering Manager and own our automation strategy from end to end. That means finding the prospects, building the business case, and delivering projects through to commissioning on time and on budget. This is a hands‑on role working with industrial robots, PLCs and servo systems. You'll work closely with Production, Engineering, Quality/HSE and Maintenance.

What you'll do
Identify and scope automation opportunities and build the investment case
Lead projects from electrical design through to commissioning, and report on milestones and ROI
Design control systems and specify and program PLCs, HMIs, robots and servo drives
Shape Seeley's digital automation roadmap with senior stakeholders
Train operators and build in-house robotics capability

What you'll bring




A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering
5+ years in electrical engineering and industrial automation in a manufacturing or operational workplace
At least one automation project you've personally taken from business case to commissioning
Hands‑on programming experience with PLCs (Allen‑Bradley, Siemens or Mitsubishi) and industrial robots
Working knowledge of HMIs, vision/camera systems, AGVs and barcoding
Confidence reporting to senior management and aligning automation with business priorities
An unrestricted electrical licence (SA or an interstate equivalent)

Working arrangements
Office‑based, with regular time on the factory floor
Some intrastate and interstate travel
Occasional after‑hours work during project delivery and commissioning

Seeley International is an equal chance employer, committed to an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive. If you need an adjustment at any stage of the recruitment process, tell us and we'll work with you.
