- Degree qualification in Electrical Engineering (or similar)
- Demonstrated experience in utility industry with depth and breadth of knowledge in all aspects of plant and equipment up to 500kV
- Demonstrated knowledge of a large range of primary plant operations

- Solving some of the most complex energy challenges of our time: We love unpacking clever ways and looking at things differently.
- Building an energy future to be proud of: We’re a trusted leader, with deep expertise, driven to do what’s right for our customers and communities.
- Being apart a team that cares deeply about each other: We share in the good times. We support in the tough times. And we’re humble through and through.
