The Opportunity

Build, develop and apply your Electrical, Instrumentation & Control Engineering abilities in this Senior EI&C Engineer role with Beca, joining our New Zealand Steel, Glenbrook-based team. In this role, you will have ample scope to make a difference through delivering capital projects, from scoping through to design, procurement, install/construction and commissioning. By working on site, you will see daily the impact from these projects in how they add value to the operation of one of NZ's largest and most complex industrial sites.

You will be part of the New Zealand Steel Engineering Services team, supported by the depth of expertise and experience from the Beca Industrial business. You will work on a variety of projects across different plants around the site, varying in budget and complexity.

• Execute capital projects in all stages, from design through to construction and commissioning

• Provide client leadership and technical direction on a range of projects
• Be a leader, mentor and coach to our Electrical team
• Network, develop and grow relationships with clients and the Beca team within the industrial business
• Tap into Beca's technical specialist and multidisciplined workforce, as well as apply your own expertise to develop the best solution for the client

Being based on site at NZ Steel in Glenbrook, South Auckland means you will be applying your relationship-building abilities, working with site teams with deep knowledge and expertise on the operations across the site. You will connect, listen, understand, collaborate and deliver projects in a way that adds value to the onsite teams.

As part of the broader Beca Industrial business, you will be part of a team of over 200 engineers and industry experts passionate about the positive impact they have through the projects they deliver.
