This role ensures that all electrical systems are properly evaluated during tendering, and delivered on time, within budget, and in strict compliance with safety regulations and engineering standards.
Key Responsibilities
- Review tender documents, drawings, and Bills of Quantities (BQ) to identify technical gaps, risks, and discrepancies, raising formal Technical Queries (TQ) to clients or consultants.
- Assist in drafting preliminary technical method statements, project execution plans, and risk assessments required for submission in the technical tender package.
- Manage electrical projects from initial design and budgeting through procurement, installation, testing, commissioning, and final handover.
- Develop comprehensive project timelines, milestones, and resource allocation plans.
- Coordinate seamlessly with civil contractors, mechanical engineers, architects, clients, and sub-contractors to ensure integration of electrical systems.
- Lead and mentor a team of project engineers, supervisors, and sub-contractors, promoting a culture of accountability and high performance.
- Act as the primary point of contact for clients, providing transparent progress updates and resolving project bottlenecks promptly.
- Manage project budgets, monitor cash flow, track expenses, and implement cost-control measures to maximize profitability.
- Identify, document, and negotiate variations or scope changes to ensure proper billing and contractual compliance.
- Design, review, approve, and verify electrical engineering drawings, single-line diagrams, schematic layouts, and technical specifications (e.g., MV/HV switchgear, transformers, and UPS systems).
- Knowledge to perform load, cable sizing, voltage drop, short-circuit and protection calculations is mandatory
- Coordinate electrical connections from MV switchgear, transformers, LV switchboards, MCCs/PCCs to semiconductor tools.
- Oversee factory acceptance tests (FAT) and site acceptance tests (SAT) to validate system functionality before final handover.
- Ensure compliance with project specifications, IEC standards and Malaysian electrical requirements.
Job Requirements
- Degree/Diploma in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
- 8–12+ years experiences.
- Strong hands-on experience in MV and LV power distribution.
- Proven experience with large power cables and parallel cable installations.
- Strong knowledge of cable sizing, routing, termination and electrical calculations.
- Experience with MV switchgear, transformers, MCCs and LV switchboards.
- Semiconductor, data centre, industrial or high-reliability facility experience is preferred.
- Experience with 11kV and above is an advantage.
- AutoCAD and electrical design experience required.
- Strong site coordination and contractor management skills.
- Willing to travel to project sites in Malaysia.
- You will be base in Penang or Kulim.
- Candidates with experience working on semiconductor fabs are strongly encouraged to apply.
What we offer
We offer a competitive remuneration package commensurate with qualifications and experience. As an Electrical Manager, you will enjoy the following benefits:
- Competitive base salary and performance-based bonus
- High-Value Project Exposure – Work on major semiconductor and industrial projects, including complex power distribution and large-scale cable systems.
- Technical Challenge – Work on complex MV/LV systems, large power cables, switchgear, MCCs and semiconductor tool hook-up, rather than routine electrical work.
- Collaborative Environment – Work closely with clients, consultants, OEMs and experienced engineering teams.
- Statutory benefits including EPF, SOCSO and annual leave in accordance with Malaysian employment law
