Want to bring ideas to life?
As an engineer you're no doubt aware of Aurecon – we've been a leading design, engineering and advisory company for decades. But why should you choose to join us?
Every project Aurecon delivers leaves a legacy. Every project has sustainability embedded in decision making. And every project is at the leading-edge of technical eminence.
But it really comes down to one, crucial question: what kind of world do you want to create for the next generation? Truth is, the decisions being made right now will determine the future of everything – from the local community to the entire planet. One of those decisions is: who do you decide to work for?
How will your ideas contribute to shaping what's next?
As our new Lead Transmission Lines Engineer, you'll be part of an eminent and diverse team delivering some of the biggest and most complex transmission line projects in Victoria and across Australia. You'll play a pivotal role in planning, designing, and delivering high-voltage transmission infrastructure (typically 132kV and above), supporting Australia's energy transition and grid modernisation.
Your role will include:
- Conducting technical assessments and feasibility studies for major transmission line projects.
- Leading and reviewing designs, specifications, and drawings for transmission lines (132kV and above).
- Ensuring compliance with Australian codes, standards, and regulatory requirements.
- Collaborating with utilities, EPCs, and government agencies throughout the project lifecycle.
- Providing design leadership and mentoring within the team to ensure technical excellence.
- Supporting construction, testing, and commissioning activities.
How will your future be shaped by us?
Joining Aurecon means you'll be at the award-winning edge of innovation and sustainability. AFR ranked us Top 5 among sustainability leaders and Top 3 of all innovative companies in professional services. One Consult awarded us an innovative design award. Plus, we were Consult Australia's large firm of the year.
You really can bring your whole self to work and be confident your voice will be heard. We don't just claim we're inclusive and innovative, as proven by the independent awards and accreditations we've gained.
We've been recognised for our innovation culture, gender equality and our LGBTI+ inclusion. Plus, we have a robust Reconciliation Action Plan – our fourth edition since 2014.
You'll also benefit from:
- A learning programme 100% personalised to you
- The Aurecon Design Academy (earn a Graduate Certificate in Design Management with RMIT University)
- Mentoring, leadership development, and global career pathways
- Competitive paid parental leave, cultural holiday swaps, and wellbeing support programmes
What are we looking for from you?
You'll have a genuine passion for building the future of Australia's energy grid. We value the unique skills each person brings, and we're looking for someone with:
- Bachelor's degree in Civil/Structural, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering (or equivalent).
- 10+ years' experience in transmission line engineering, with proven HV (132kV and above) design capability.
- Proficiency in transmission line design tools (e.g., PLS-CADD, PLS TOWER, PLS POLE).
- Experience working with utilities, transmission asset owners, or EPC contractors.
- Strong technical leadership skills with the ability to guide a multidisciplinary team.
- Excellent communication skills and ability to engage with internal and external stakeholders.
- Knowledgeable on Australian and International standards and industry codes of practice for transmission lines.
- Must be a Registered Professional Engineers in Victoria (RPEV)
Think you know Aurecon? You may be surprised.
Aurecon's strength has always been our people. It's our people who build our shared purpose and bring ideas to life. It's our people who imagine and co-create with our clients a better future for people and the planet.
Of course, you'll probably know lots of our award-winning projects. The new Allianz Stadium in Sydney? That was us. Tāmaki Regeneration in Auckland? That was us too. And the Tseung Kwan O Interchange in Hong Kong? You guessed it, us
So, when you join us, you'll not only be joining an international design, engineering and advisory company but also a community working together to tackle some of the world's most complex challenges.
