A leading national infrastructure contractor is expanding their presence in Western Australia and is now seeking a Regional Commissioning Manager to lead transmission commissioning across utility, renewables, and energy infrastructure projects.

This is a newly created leadership role—offering the chance to build a commissioning function from the ground up, starting with a major HV transmission program and scaling across a growing WA portfolio.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Deliver end-to-end commissioning of HV substations (132kV–330kV) across both greenfield and brownfield sites.
  • Lead and support complex testing across secondary systems, including:
  • Protection schemes, relay testing and configuration (e.g. SEL, GE, Siemens)
  • SCADA, automation, and control systems
  • Interface with outage planning, switching schedules, and system requests
  • Represent the business in front of utility clients and network operators.
  • Build and mentor a high-performing team of engineers and technicians.
  • Manage subcontractors and ensure compliance with industry and regulatory standards.

What You'll Bring:

  • Strong commissioning background in transmission (not distribution).
  • Hands-on expertise in secondary systems and protection & control.
  • Solid understanding of substation configurations (breaker-and-a-half, mesh), NEI regulations, and HV isolation procedures.
  • Confidence to engage directly with utilities and drive technical outcomes.
  • A leadership style that's hands-on, structured, and team-focused.
  • Based in WA or open to relocation.

What's On Offer:

  • A rare chance to shape the commissioning strategy for a major contractor in WA.
  • Lead delivery on a $1B+ project pipeline.
  • Support from national engineering and delivery leadership.
  • A very market aware salary package

If you're an experienced commissioning professional with deep secondary systems knowledge and a drive to lead—this is your chance to take ownership of a region and make your mark.
