**Energise your career**

If you like the idea of working on projects that make a fundamental difference to the lives of people in your community, consider a role at Vector.

So much of what we take for granted in our everyday lives is enabled by the work that Vector is doing to ensure our infrastructure is fit for purpose for a rapidly changing future.

Across our network we are transforming the way that Auckland's critical infrastructure is delivered through high-tech data-led solutions and customer first thinking. It's a dynamic, energising place to work because what you do here matters to everyone.

**About the role**

Auckland is experiencing significant growth, and this is true of our electricity network too. At a time of transport electrification and network resilience in the face of increasing adverse weather events, the long
- and short-term planning of our network has never been more challenging. At the same time, this presents an exciting opportunity in this role.

You’ll be responsible for providing network capacity and security to meet customers’ needs for a high quality, reliable and resilient power supply at an effective cost. You’ll do this through pioneering ideas and technology, utilising digital platforms and non-wired alternatives.

In this role, you’ll enjoy the sort of satisfaction that comes with knowing you’re playing an integral part in Vector achieving our Symphony Strategy, keeping the lights on and homes warm across Auckland whilst driving a sustainable new energy future.

**Who we are looking for**

We envisage you’ll have the following experience and attributes:

- A bachelor’s degree in a related field, with substantial experience in the electricity or relevant engineering sector
- You’ll hold chartered engineer status, or be progressing towards this through IPENZ (or equivalent overseas)
- You’ll be an experienced planner, adept in the use of modelling tools
- You’ll collaborate with other teams effectively, building and maintaining relationships across departments and organisations

**What we can offer you**

Whether it’s the opportunity to do meaningful mahi and build a legacy for Auckland and New Zealand, to work in an innovative and transformative sector, or our commitment to supporting your development, there’s a myriad of reasons to choose a career with Vector.

We also offer:
