Description

Want to bring ideas to life? As an engineer, you’ve probably heard 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 excellence. But it really comes down to one crucial question: what kind of world do you want to create for the next generation? 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 choose to work for? How will your ideas contribute to shaping what’s next? As our new Transmission Lines Engineer, you’ll join our NSW & ACT Energy team, based in Sydney, that’s shaping the future of Australia’s renewable energy grid. From solar and wind farms to BESS, pumped hydro, and major transmission infrastructure, you’ll be at the forefront of designing and delivering projects that matter – from everyday business-as-usual through to complex Design & Construct (D&C) programs. You’ll be part of the engine room – experienced enough to lead designs and mentor our early-career talent, while still growing your own expertise through major greenfield projects (up to 500kV), brownfield sustaining capital work, and even contributing to innovation in tower prototyping, testing, and commissioning. Your role will include: Leading and delivering designs across HV transmission line projects (33kV all the way through to 500kV). Supporting bids and tenders across a spectrum of contracting models – from direct utility maintenance packages to complex D&C of Renewable Energy Zones. Applying your knowledge of Australian Standards (AS/NZS 1170.2, AS/NZS 7000, AS 4100), PLS software suite (PLS-CADD, TOWER & POLE), and HV design. Collaborating with state utilities, contractors, joint ventures, and alliances to deliver projects that accelerate Australia’s renewable energy future. Mentoring early-career engineers and contributing to the strength of the team. How will your future be shaped by us? Joining Aurecon means being part of an organisation consistently recognised for innovation and sustainability. AFR ranked us Top 5 among sustainability leaders and Top 3 of all innovative companies in professional services. We’ve also been recognised for our inclusive culture, gender equality, and LGBTI+ inclusion. On a personal level you’ll have access to flexible work options, wellbeing support, and learning opportunities tailored to you. These include: A personalised learning programme to grow your technical and leadership skills. Access to 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 initiatives. 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: A degree in Civil/Structural, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering (or equivalent). 4+ years’ experience in transmission line engineering, with hands-on design delivery. Proficiency with PLS-CADD (and ideally PLS-POLE and PLS-TOWER). Strong collaboration and problem-solving skills, with the ability to work across diverse teams and clients. Think you know Aurecon? You may be surprised. Of course, you’ll probably know some of our award-winning projects. The Central West Orana Renewable Energy Zone? We’re on it. The new Allianz Stadium in Sydney? That was us. Tāmaki Regeneration in Auckland? Us too. And the Tseung Kwan O Interchange in Hong Kong? You guessed it. So, when you join us, you’re not only joining an international design, engineering, and advisory company but also a community working together to tackle some of the world’s most complex challenges. Our purpose is bringing ideas to life. Learn more about us on our website.
