A leading national infrastructure contractor is expanding their presence in Western Australia and is now seeking a Regional Commissioning Manager to lead transmission commissioning across utility, renewables, and energy infrastructure projects.
This is a newly created leadership role—offering the chance to build a commissioning function from the ground up, starting with a major HV transmission program and scaling across a growing WA portfolio.
What You'll Be Doing:
* Deliver end-to-end commissioning of HV substations (132kV–330kV) across both greenfield and brownfield sites.
* Lead and support complex testing across secondary systems, including:
* Protection schemes, relay testing and configuration (e.g. SEL, GE, Siemens)
* SCADA, automation, and control systems
* Interface with outage planning, switching schedules, and system requests
* Represent the business in front of utility clients and network operators.
* Build and mentor a high-performing team of engineers and technicians.
* Manage subcontractors and ensure compliance with industry and regulatory standards.
What You'll Bring:
* Strong commissioning background in transmission (not distribution).
* Hands-on expertise in secondary systems and protection & control.
* Solid understanding of substation configurations (breaker-and-a-half, mesh), NEI regulations, and HV isolation procedures.
* Confidence to engage directly with utilities and drive technical outcomes.
* A leadership style that's hands-on, structured, and team-focused.
* Based in WA or open to relocation.
What's On Offer:
* A rare chance to shape the commissioning strategy for a major contractor in WA.
* Lead delivery on a $1B+ project pipeline.
* Support from national engineering and delivery leadership.
* A very market aware salary package
If you're an experienced commissioning professional with deep secondary systems knowledge and a drive to lead—this is your chance to take ownership of a region and make your mark.
