1 week ago


Mount Gambier, South Australia Enerven Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

Enerven delivers electrical infrastructure and telecommunications solutions that are vital to connecting communities across Australia. Our design, construction, and maintenance services ensure reliable power generation, transmission, and distribution to homes and businesses nationwide – and our commitment to renewable energy and resilient grid infrastructure sets us apart. 

The expertise and dedication of our people spans the entire electricity network, so careers at Enerven are defined by meaningful contributions and impactful work. 

At Enerven, we're connecting you with tomorrow. 

About the role

Enerven provides advanced maintenance services that ensure the reliability and longevity of South Australia's critical energy infrastructure. We deliver ongoing support and innovation to keep our clients' networks operating smoothly — today, tomorrow, and into the future.

As part of our Substation Maintenance team, you'll perform routine servicing, emergency repairs, and upgrade works for ElectraNet and SA Power Networks substations across the south-east. You'll work as part of a tight-knit three-person crew, based at our Mt Gambier depot.

Day to day, you will:

  • Carry out inspections, testing, and scheduled maintenance on HV substation equipment

  • Perform fault finding and emergency repairs to keep critical assets online

  • Assist with installation and upgrade projects across transmission and distribution networks

  • Complete switching operations and isolations (with appropriate authorisations)

  • Maintain accurate service records and contribute to a strong safety culture

Our standard work hours are Monday to Friday, 7:00am–3:30pm, across a 9-day fortnight. As we provide 24/7 support to the Transmission and Distribution networks in the region, flexibility to work overtime (at double time) and participate in an on-call roster (1 in 3 weeks) is essential. 

About you 

You'll bring:

  • A recognised Electrical Trade Qualification

  • A current SA Electrical Workers Licence (or eligibility to obtain)

  • Experience as a HV Electrician in substation maintenance, construction, mining, or other heavy industrial environments

  • A valid South Australian Driver's Licence

  • (Bonus) HV switching experience or willingness to gain authorisation

Beyond your technical skills, you are:

  • A proactive team player who thrives in a close-knit crew

  • Someone who communicates well and builds strong working relationships

  • Equally confident working independently, with the maturity to manage tasks solo

  • Safety-driven, with a strong eye for detail
