Position summary

We are seeking expressions of interest from Senior and Lead Electrical Engineers (Power Systems and LV plant) who may be interested in joining our new Melbourne office. You will contribute to and coordinate design on major mining projects that ECG is driving from study phase through to delivery, around the world.

About the company

ECG Engineering are leaders in the Electrical Engineering space, delivering design and project delivery services to the Mining, Utilities, Materials Handling and Industrial sectors with extensive and proven capabilities in Australia, and around the world.

With offices in Perth, Brisbane, Toronto, Manila & Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania & Cape Town, ECG have the capability to design and deliver on complex projects, from early study work to commissioning and handover, drawing on the expertise of senior ECG personnel who have worked together for 30 + years.

About the role

The roles will be Melbourne based, working as part of ECG’s growing national design capability. There will be collaboration with our established teams in Perth and Brisbane, occasional input on studies and reports from our Toronto office, and coordination of work with our engineering office in Manila.

About the candidate

  • Strong background in either Power Systems or Control Systems (or both)
  • LV design experience (LV MCC design, protection & co-ordination studies) highly regarded
  • Major project design experience throughout the design cycle
  • Experience / exposure to project delivery, driving a job (not necessarily an entire project)
