Our Strategic Asset Integration Team, within the Grid Development division, is responsible for identifying and conveying our future Grid needs plus years ahead) and develops transmission asset management strategies to meet our strategic objectives as outlined in Transmission Tomorrow and Whakamana i Te Mauri Hiko.


The team assimilates parallel workstreams that impact the grid and utilises a systems thinking approach to enable a joined-up and compelling Integrated Transmission Plan.

Providing a linkage and 'line of sight' between our Corporate and Grid Business strategies, you'll work across the business to play a key role in:

  • Determining the key differences between what is required of the Grid and what it's presently able to deliver as well as carrying out investigations to enable our network strategies.
  • Develop and support an integrated risk prioritisation approach for the grid.
  • Develop an effective Grid's risk management framework in collaboration with others.
  • Leading engagement across Transpower (including with other strategic, customer, commercial, planning, engineering, and operational teams) to develop strategies and approaches to achieve our strategic objectives and enable improved delivery of the transmission service.
  • Identify opportunities and options that deliver significant longterm value, through integrated customer, system, and asset planning.
  • Representing Transpower within the external engineering community.
  • Developing asset management capability within Transpower, including working across the division with People Managers to facilitate the technical career development of others.

You'll help to build asset management capability, inspire change, and gain a lot of executive exposure.


Your focus over the next months will be to develop and support an integrated risk prioritisation approach for the Grid and an effective Grid risk management framework in collaboration with others.


About you


You'll be a degree qualified Engineer with CPENG or an international equivalent with a demonstrable ability to work at pace and provide value.


Your CV and cover letter will clearly convey:

  • Strategic asset management and asset reliability experience and thought leadership, including completing asset life cycle economic analysis.
  • An understanding of risk modelling, complex systems, or complex problems
  • An ability to weigh cost, system performance, risk, and environmental sustainability.
  • Outstanding communication skills both written and verbal including demonstrated ability to convey technical information to a broad range of audiences, internally and externally. Ideally, you have contributed to, or authored, thought or board papers previously (please share these with us)
  • A customer focus and astute relationship and expectation management skills when partnering with people of all levels and capabilities.
  • Previous work leading crossfunctional teams through influence and working both independently and where codesign is advantageous.
While not essential - experience in any of the follow are advantageous.

  • Systems and risk engineering
  • Application of new grid technologies
