SUMMER INTERN – ELECTRICITY DESIGN

New Plymouth
We’re on the lookout for a 2nd or 3rd year Engineering student who’s keen to roll up their sleeves and get some hands-on experience in the electricity sector this summer.
You’ll be joining our Electricity Design team, helping out with a key piece of work involving the Stationware database - the system that helps us manage our substation and network asset data. It’s a great chance to learn how design decisions support the wider electricity system and see how your studies apply in the real world.
