Team Leader – Primary Engineering
Beca’s Power business operates as a truly combined Asia Pacific business, with teams based in Australia, New Zealand, Thailand and Indonesia. Working collaboratively, our teams are passionate about renewable energy and the delivery of critical energy projects working across the full project lifecycle from scoping, detailed design through to procurement and construction support. Together they deliver large, complex energy and renewable projects across Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution, and HV Power services to key utilities, energy developers, major contractors for the commercial, industrial and infrastructure sectors.
We're looking for a Team Leader - Primary Engineering to lead and grow our Melbourne based team of talented engineers. This is a fantastic opportunity to combine people leadership with technical delivery, supporting a close-knit team of engineers working across transmission, distribution and substation projects throughout Australia and New Zealand.
This role would suit an experienced Primary Engineer with previous people leadership experience, or someone who is ready to take the next step as a Team Leader.
You'll play a key role in leading and developing an already strong and highly engaged team, fostering a positive, collaborative and high-performing culture while contributing your technical expertise to the delivery of complex power infrastructure projects.
Solve complex engineering challenges across site constraints, client requirements, equipment specifications, earthing, cabling and safety standards
Our design and project roles are busy, with multiple work projects, differing client deadlines and changing timeframes . Your ability to work across multiple workstreams managing your time and deliverables will be important, as will being able to adapt to changing project deliverables and timeframes . Updating stakeholders early and often will be a key mantra that you work by, especially for those ‘hard conversations’ where project timelines are at risk of not being met.
You will be part of a team of Beca’s leading design experts working collaboratively to deliver best-in-class designs. Career development opportunities exist including moving across technical, design, technology, people, client or business leadership pathways.

You'll be a valued team member with opportunities to grow your career and contribute to the Power team's success. Our colleagues come from diverse backgrounds, including client , consultancy, design-build contractors, and industrial businesses. We invite applications from a broad range of backgrounds.
