Principal Electrical Engineer: Building Services

4 weeks ago

Perth, Australia ClearCompany Full time

The opportunity (why this role exists) The business is planning properly for the future. With three Directors and a strong, stable workload, the next step is bringing in a Principal Electrical Engineer who can: - Deliver technically at the highest level - Take ownership of key client relationships - Gradually step into leadership and equity as part of a structured succession plan This isn't about "winning work at all costs". It's about continuity, trust, and long-term thinking. The role (beyond technical delivery) Yes, you must be technically excellent. That's a given. But as a Principal, you'll also: - Act as a trusted advisor to Building Services clients - Maintain and grow long-standing relationships - Help shape workload, not scramble for it - Mentor senior engineers and influence standards - Contribute to the strategic direction of the business You'll still be hands‑on, just at the level where your judgement really matters. Career pathways (you choose the direction) There are two supported pathways, and both are properly funded: Technical Pathway - Progress through Principal level - Achieve Fellow recognition with Engineers Australia - Be recognised as a subject‑matter expert Leadership / Ownership Pathway - Move into Director‑level responsibilities - Take on client, people, and business leadership - Buy into the business with genuine equity upside To be clear on the upside: A 10% shareholding has the potential to generate $100,000 per annum on top of salary. What you'll need - Senior/Principal‑level electrical building services experience - Strong client‑facing capability and professional credibility - The maturity to represent the business externally - Interest in long‑term leadership, not short‑term titles What you'll get - Structured equity opportunity as part of succession planning - Stability, consistency, and zero sales pressure culture - Direct influence over projects, clients, and future direction - A realistic path to Director or Partner, not vague promises Interested but not actively looking? That's expected. A confidential conversation is encouraged. If your CV isn't current, don't worry, send a short email or call Gareth McCafferty (me) on 0403 625 836 directly for an informal discussion. #J-18808-Ljbffr
