**Company Description**

**Te Tākinatanga | Our Story**
- Ko tā Contact e whakapono nei, ko te taiao tonu te taonga nui katoa o te ao._
- Koinei mātou e whai atu nei kia mahue atu i a mātou tētahi ao hauora ake, tēnā i te ora i kuhu ai mātou._
- He pakihi whakarato hiko, ipurangi mātou, engari arā kē atu anō ā mātou taha._
- Kei te whakawhanake mātou i ā mātou mahi ake, i ngā ara hoki e whai hiko ai a Aotearoa, kei te kōkiri kia tukua te hiko tukurua, ā, kei te whakaputa i tētahi wheako matihiko mō ā mātou kiritaki kāore anō kia kitea i tēnei whenua._
- He tīma kotahi mano mātou nō ngā hau e whā, e ngākau nui ana ki ā mātou mahi, e aroha ana tētahi ki tētahi, e ako ngātahi ana, e whakapono tahi ana ki ā mātou tikanga ārahi: mā te manaaki kia toa, ka mana te katoa._

At Contact, we believe home is the most important place in the world. It's all part of our vision to leave Aotearoa better than we found it. We’re a power and broadband company, but we’re so much more than that. We are transforming the ways we mahi, and how Aotearoa is powered, leading the charge on renewable energy and digitising customer journeys in ways not yet seen here. A team of 1000+ from all walks of life who love what we do, look out for each other, and learn from one another every day, we’re stoked to be guided by our tikanga: _we touch lives to make life better_.

**Te Whiwhinga mahi | The opportunity**

System Technicians look after maintenance of process control and instrumentation systems at Te Huka Binary Power Station and Ohaaki Power Station to ensure we keep our workplace safe and the lights on for Aotearoa.

Focused on Electrical and Instrumentation with automation working on PLCs and some HV, this is a trade role, but more specialised than you might be used to. Part of a supportive team, you’ll report to our Superstar Maintenance Supervisor and get stuck into everything from plant electrical, control and instrumentation devices and machine protection systems to plant alarm, indication systems and statistical metering equipment along with HV testing, calibration of field instrumentation, control valves and electrical equipment, and maintenance of critical control systems like AVR and Governor.

It’s a given that you’ll bring a certain level of expertise to be able to help us from day dot, but we’ll help you, too. You’ll be buddied up with some of the best to learn from and over time gain exposure to a range of mahi and technical challenges that mean you grow as you go.

**Qualifications**

**Ko wai koe | About you**

You'll need to have a dual trade in Instrumentation and Electrical, with good working knowledge of PLC and automation. The key skills we’re looking for are in control system maintenance and optimisation, and maintenance of field devices, protection systems and electrical, and C&I plant and equipment.

Working in power generation can throw up all sorts of curly challenges you might not have come across elsewhere, so it’s essential to have good initiative and problem-solving skills along with clear communication and a generally keen, positive attitude. There’s a fair bit of admin required to keep processes and reporting up to date, so you’ll need to have a good eye for detail and be comfy with computers and record-keeping, too.

Bonus points if you have contract and project management experience.

**Additional Information**

**How to get involved?**
- 2 x permanent opportunities available

There are a bunch of perks to being a permanent Contact kaimahi (employee). Along with great leadership, teammates, development, and growth and progression opportunities, you’ll enjoy flexible working, free health insurance cover, better-than-your-average leave, access to Contact Shares, a ‘Good to be Home’ annual payment toward your home set up & wellbeing, a trail-blazing parental leave policy, discounts on Contact Energy products, and more..
