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.

**Job Description** Te Whiwhinga mahi | The opportunity**
Based at our Wairakei Power Station, System Technicians look after the maintenance of our process control and instrumentation systems to ensure we keep our workplace safe as well as keep the lights on for Contact customers.
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?**
Contact is not a place you’ll stagnate. We are growing and offer superb learning and development opportunities along with a bunch of other perks like 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.
