Job description

Electrical Engineer - Brisbane

NES Fircroft has partnered with a well-established electrical contractor and engineering business delivering projects across the infrastructure and industrial sectors, to identify an Electrical Engineer for their Water Infrastructure Business Unit in South-West Brisbane.

About the Role

This is an opportunity to step into a role where no two projects are necessarily the same. While your core focus will remain within electrical engineering, the nature of the work means you’ll have the opportunity to get involved across different stages of projects, work alongside experienced engineers and automation specialists, and build an understanding of how electrical and control systems come together in a live project environment.

What makes the opportunity interesting is the level of exposure available. You won’t be confined to one system, client or way of working. Depending on the projects you become involved in, there is the potential to gain experience across different technologies, platforms and environments, including Schneider and Siemens.

For an engineer who enjoys learning and wants to continue developing technically, this provides an opportunity to broaden your skill set while gaining valuable exposure to the full project lifecycle, from design and engineering through to testing and commissioning.

There is also an exciting element of progression to the role. As you build your knowledge and become more involved across projects, there is scope to take on greater responsibility and develop into areas that may not have been part of your experience to date. The business is continuing to grow, and the opportunity is there to grow alongside it.

Key responsibilities include:

• Delivering electrical engineering designs for industrial and water infrastructure projects
• Preparing and reviewing SLDs, MCC & switchboard designs, cable schedules, load lists, calculations, and specifications
• Liaising effectively with clients, contractors, site personnel, and project teams
• Working alongside the project manager with planning, risk management, and technical delivery
• The opportunity is there to work with PLC and SCADA specialists to ensure successful integration of various electrical and automation systems.

Qualifications:

• Degree in Electrical Engineering or similar
• White Card
• Driver’s license
• Low-Voltage experience
• RPEQ (or on the pathway) is advantageous
• Water Infrastructure experience is desirable.

Benefits:

• Competitive Salary Package
• Gain valuable training to different packages of work
• Progression opportunities
• Exposure to Schneider, Siemens, Rockwell, Citect, Ignition, WinCC, or similar, with training or guidance provided if needed
• Potential assistance with attaining specific qualifications.
