Auckland City, New Zealand Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. Full time

**Your Impact**:
The UK has always had a lot to offer people looking for something different - travel, adventure, great weather (sometimes), friendly relaxed communities and an unmatched lifestyle.

Now due to a sustained period of economic growth and increasing investment in **Energy and Transition Jacobs** can offer something that could put that lifestyle within your reach: a host of career opportunities in technically challenging, large scale projects across both countries.

At Jacobs we believe in collaboration and knowledge sharing and we have invested in technology that enables greater flexibility in where you and your family decide to live. We have some specific needs in our major city offices but we’re open to talking to you about a number of locations.

We have several sub-specialist positions for you to consider. These are real positions offered on a permanent or fixed-term basis depending on how long you think you might like to spend here. Right now, we have roles in the following disciplines:
**Electrical Design Engineer -**
- ** **Substations**
- ** **Cable**
- ** **Over-head lines**
- ** **Protection & Control**

We understand that pursuing international roles like these is a big move, so we’re not asking for a commitment right now. Instead, why not simply register to start a discussion and see where it goes?

Achieve more with a global brand (in some great locations)

A career at Jacobs means working on some of the world’s most exciting projects, solving complex challenges and undertaking meaningful work that benefits our communities and the world.

Our **Energy Transition team** is focused on providing a whole system approach, offering end-to-end service to support our clients in energy networks, thermal generation, renewable generation and storage solutions.

Given the demand for talent in the energy market, we are looking to develop talent from aligned sectors and want to offer electrical design engineers the opportunity to move into the Energy Transition sector - you will be offered support and development if this is not a sector you have experience in, or just hit the ground running on exciting projects if you already know this market well

Our UK and Continental Europe team is growing and we’re looking for an Electrical Engineers who can progress in Substations and Plant design role to provide support to projects across Jacobs’ markets. This includes work on transmission system assets, HVDC interconnectors, energy storage systems, inertia systems, wind farms and advanced facilities for mission critical industries in the technology and process sectors.

We will consider technical professionals from most backgrounds, but we are especially keen to seek experience within rail, oil and gas refinery, substation/plant design.

**Here’s what you’ll need**:

- A degree in Electrical Engineering or another relevant engineering discipline and Chartered Engineer status with a relevant institution or working towards chartered status
- Experience within an electrical discipline and experience in delivering complex multi-disciplinary projects e.g. Rail or Oil and Gas Refinery
- Relevant, professional experience in HV and LV experience and knowledge of substations 33kV
- Experience preparing design calculations, reports, and detailed drawings. CAD (AutoCAD or Microstation) preferred but not essential.

**What can you expect?**

We aim higher. Jacobs want to play a leadership role in Global Energy Transition, making a difference and creating a change. We will support your entrepreneurial mindset to help challenge and bring different, innovative approaches to the way we deliver solutions for our clients. Challenging today. Reinventing tomorrow.
