Foster a high-performing, collaborative team culture focused on continuous learning and development
Ensure compliance with relevant Australian and international standards for design, testing, and commissioning
Apply your expertise in PLS-CADD, TOWER and/or POLE to support high-quality engineering outcomes
Oversee the full asset lifecycle from planning through to construction, operation, and maintenance
Build and maintain strong client relationships, enhancing WSP’s market presence and reputation
Lead bids, proposals, and strategic growth initiatives to secure new work
Support project delivery in a Project Director / Project Manager capacity where required
Promote innovation, safety, sustainability, and continuous improvement
Ensure compliance with all Safety, Health, Environment and Quality (SHEQ) requirements

About you

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Civil, Structural, or Mechanical Engineering (or equivalent)
Relevant experience within the Transmission & Distribution industry with proven Australian market expertise
Demonstrated leadership experience across people, projects, and mentoring/coaching
Strong background in overhead transmission line design and engineering
Experience with PLS-CADD (TOWER/POLE) highly regarded
Proven ability in business development, proposals, and winning work
Experience delivering projects as a Project Manager or Project Director
Commercially astute with a strong understanding of business drivers
Engineering registration (CPEng, CEng or equivalent) preferred or willingness to obtain
Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage competing priorities
A collaborative, client-focused approach with excellent communication skills
Resilient, adaptable, and comfortable working in a dynamic environment

Why join us?

Work on nationally significant energy infrastructure projects
Play a key role in leading and growing a team, shaping capability and future leaders
Flexible working options across Australia
Strong pipeline of Transmission & Distribution work
Clear pathway into senior leadership roles
Collaborative, supportive team environment with a focus on development

WSP Benefits & Perks:

Flexible working arrangements (hybrid + work-life balance) with core hours of 10am – 3pm
Up to 16 weeks paid parental leave for primary carers
Option to purchase up to 4 additional weeks of leave (or up to 8 weeks with our school leave program)
Clear career pathways, mentoring, and professional development
Inclusive, collaborative culture with strong leadership support
Opportunities to work across Australia and globally
Employee Share Purchase Plan (become a WSP shareholder)

How You’ll Work

You’ll be based in one of our offices across Australia, ideally Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane, Perth or Canberra, working closely with local project teams while collaborating with our national Transmission & Distribution team.

This role offers a mix of office, site, and hybrid working—giving you exposure to both local delivery and large-scale national programs.
