Development is key within our organisation so every five weeks, our Controllers are given 12.5 hours of professional development time and regular training.
Callum, Network Controller:
"My family immigrated to Western Australia in January 2024, with the help of Western Power. I had worked for a DNO (Distribution Network Operator) in the UK for 17 years as a Network Controller. Once we decided that we wanted to make the move and I had been accepted for the role, things moved quickly, and we were in Australia in around 6 months.
As part of my contract, I was offered an excellent relocation package.
Western Power helped with most aspects of relocation - visa's for my whole family, flights, shipping all of my belongings & temporary accommodation.
This took away a lot of the worry of making a move like this."What you will be doing
