  • Designing and reviewing single line diagrams, schematics, terminations, equipment layouts, substation layouts
  • Generating cable schedules and equipment lists
  • Managing your workload across concurrent projects, ensuring timely delivery and design integrity
  • Collaboration with other disciplines to prevent design holds and meet project specific requirements and timeframes

What we are looking for:

  • 3 – 5 years of drafting experience in the resources industry
  • Diploma-level qualifications in electrical design/drafting
  • Proficiency in CAD design packages and systems
  • Experience in 2D/3D modelling in the electrical space
  • Demonstrated problem-solving skills in a design context
  • Full and unrestricted Australian working rights
  • Experience with Electrical Single Line Diagrams, Schematics & Terminations
  • Exposure to Layout and General Arrangement Drawings such as equipment layout, lighting, earthing, cable ladder/tray routes, conduits
  • Knowledge surrounding instruments and control drawings such as loop diagrams, network block diagrams and cabinet layouts
  • Full and unrestricted AU work rights and currently residing in Brisbane
