Job description

Senior Electrical Engineer

Stantec is a global leader in sustainable engineering, architecture, and environmental consulting. The diverse perspectives of our partners and interested parties drive us to think beyond what’s previously been done on critical issues like climate change, digital transformation, and future-proofing our cities and infrastructure.

We are designers, engineers, scientists, project managers, and strategic advisors. We innovate at the intersection of community, creativity, and client relationships to advance communities everywhere, so that together we can redefine what’s possible.

We have an exciting and significant pipeline of work signed up, both short term and over next few years, for local, regional, and national clients. This work includes water / wastewater treatment plants, water supply and storage, pump stations, gravity and pressure conveyance pipelines, condition inspections, industrial plant upgrades, and 3W site serving for land development.

You will be living in a vibrant community where the active lifestyle thrives, with easy access for exploring New Zealand’s stunning southern mountains and lakes. With hiking, surfing, a world class stadium, wildlife, boutique breweries / bustling café scene and mountain biking on your doorstep, you won’t have to travel far to have adventures after work!

You will be working with a large, nurturing, and diverse team, that’s ranges from recent graduates to senior principals that are experts in their field. There are currently approximately 50 staff in the Dunedin water team and 70 staff in the Dunedin office.

About the role :

  • We are looking for a team player to strengthen our Electrical Discipline across New Zealand and deliver our existing backlog.
  • You will be working on our industrial, power, hydro, and infrastructure projects, delivering challenging, multimillion-dollar and multi-disciplinary projects across New Zealand, North America, Australia, and the Pacific. This offers a good balance between strengthening your core skills and taking increasing leadership and responsibility for work - all while also learning from Stantec’s local and global experts and furthering your development.
  • You will be responsible for delivering Electrical work packages, working together with Graduate Engineers under the guidance of a Principal Engineer. You will collaborate with Mechanical and Process engineers on multidisciplinary projects.
  • You will have client‑facing opportunities and site work which offers variety in daily tasks.
  • You will be supported by a team of Electrical Designers, CAD and Graduate Engineers.
  • This is your opportunity to grow or reinforce your abilities as a strong technical delivery leader. You will be given the opportunity to lead work packages and grow into more complex project leadership roles as you develop.
  • This is an exciting opportunity for a professional engineer with a proven track record of successfully delivering projects and working collaboratively with clients and colleagues.

What you need to bring

  • Our preferred candidate for this role will have technical experience in aspects of Electrical, Engineering for infrastructure and industrial projects.
  • A strong understanding and experience with M.V. and L.V. Power systems and design in NZ or Australia. Experience in motor control is an additional benefit but not essential.
  • You will have strong competency in relevant AS / NZS standards relating to Electrical Engineering areas that you can promote, maintain and contribute to our technical capability.
  • You will enjoy working as a team, communicate well with others and have the ability to influence others drawing on your strong communication skills.
  • You will have proven experience in working in or leading diverse teams and managing team delivery.
  • You will understand the tools, including the benefits and limitations for design including Electrical CAD and modelling software.
  • You will be experienced dealing with a range of clients and stakeholders including local authorities, government bodies and commercial companies.
  • You will have strong client facing skills developed from your previous experience.
  • In this exciting position, your own self-management skills will be as important as your technical ones. You will need to be able to prioritise workloads whilst maintaining strong and trusting working relationships with our Clients' and colleague's both locally and across the broader Stantec team.
  • You will be able to work with remote teams to deliver projects to local clients.
  • Key requirements are a BE Electrical or equivalent, plus a minimum of 10 years professional experience in the consulting or engineering industry.
  • CPEng or equivalent is preferred but not essential.
  • What we offer

    Along with a competitive salary we offer many other benefits to ensure your professional development & wellbeing is ongoing.

  • Flexible Working Arrangements including purchasing up to 4 weeks additional leave and provision for school term contracts, part time and job share.
  • Learning and Talent Development Programs including global programmes, online learning and on-the-job learning
  • Mentoring for your own development
  • Professional Memberships
  • Health Insurance – Income Continuance Insurance (ICI) – Life Insurance

  • About us

    The Stantec community unites approximately 34,000 employees working in over 450 locations across six continents. We collaborate across disciplines and industries to bring water, transport and infrastructure projects to life. Our work from initial project concept and planning through design, construction and commissioning is built on a nearly 200-year history.
