Job description

Senior ASP3 Electrical Engineer (ASP3) - Sutherland Shire

Salary: Up to $160,000 + super + annual bonus

At most firms, the founding director is either just a name on the website, or someone you see them at the Christmas party.

Here, you'll get to work alongside them, not just for them.

Lead your own ASP3 projects whilst working directly side by side with the founding director. Great opportunity to leave all red tape and office politics behind, have full autonomy and also learn how a business runs. You'll be trusted to maintain key key client relationships and make decisions that shape the practice and also decide who joins next.

You'll lead your own HV, substation and cabling projects across Ausgrid, Endeavour and Essential networks as you work on data centres, hospitals, labs, high-rise residential towers and automated warehouse facilities.

You'll be supported by a team of junior and intermediate engineers and have further support from a team of specialist external consultants.

Established in the Sutherland Shire over a decade ago, the founder still holds every project to the same three principles the business started with quality, care and innovation. They punch well above their weight in terms of projects and have a full order book for the next 12 months consisting of warehouse facilities, data centres, high-rise residential towers, commercial offices, and hospital and laboratory projects.

As Senior ASP3 Electrical Engineer, you'll lead your own projects and deal directly with all three networks Ausgrid, Endeavour Energy and Essential Energy. HV design, substations and cabling are the core of the job.

Here you'll have full autonomy over how your projects run, with junior and intermediate engineers to delegate to and to teach ASP3 as they grow.

The real difference is how close you'll be to the business. You'll work through tricky designs with the founding director and see how a consultancy actually runs, from fee proposals and winning new work to reviewing agreements and helping decide who gets hired.

This isn't a design-only role, it's a unique opportunity to understand the business side of engineering. It's a chance to become a well-rounded and commercially aware Engineer and also be rewarded when the business does well.

In addition to a salary of up to $160,000 plus super, they offer 2 x annual bonus, and do salary reviews every year.

They also take work-life balance seriously and there is no expectation to work overtime.

If you live in the south, inner west or west and want to avoid the CBD commute, this is well worth considering.

To be considered, you'll need at least five years in electrical engineering with genuine ASP3 design experience. Previous experience in substation, cabling and HV work is essential. You'll also be comfortable in Neara and Poles 'n' Wires, with a good working knowledge of Revit.

Please note, full Australian working rights are required, as sponsorship isn't available.
