Senior Electrical Engineer – Tier 1 Contractor (3315166) Melbourne, Australia

Salary: AUD130000 - AUD165000 per annum

You’re the kind of engineer who wants to be hands-on, not just designing in isolation but delivering it on site. You understand how drawings become reality, and your value is in bridging that gap.

This is a business that builds things. As a senior electrical engineer with this top-tier contractor, you’ll lead the electrical scope from tender and design coordination through to construction, site queries, and commissioning. You’ll be front and centre solving real-time challenges, advising on constructability, and seeing your decisions play out in the field.

Your projects will include new hospitals, tier 1 commercial towers, and large-scale infrastructure. You’ll be trusted to lead design reviews, coordinate with services trades and consultants, and troubleshoot in live environments.

What you’ll bring to the table:

  • 6+ years' experience in electrical building services, ideally with a contractor or services consultancy

  • Solid understanding of design, constructability, and site coordination

  • Confident in navigating RFIs, markups, value engineering, and construction liaison

  • Strong communicator, you know how to speak to a PM, foreman, or client

What’s in it for you:

  • Autonomy to run your own projects while being backed by a respected delivery team

  • A direct seat at the table with tier 1 builders,  real input, real outcomes

  • Career pathways into PM, engineering leadership or design management

  • Bonuses and a team that genuinely looks out for each other
