Lead. Inspire. Deliver energy that matters.
At SEA Gas, we play a vital role in sustainably securing the east coast energy transition. We own and operate over 800 km of high-pressure natural gas pipelines across South Australia and Victoria — delivering reliable energy to power stations, industries, and homes.
Be part of a purpose-driven business with a culture built around four simple values:
Be Creative – think beyond
Be Brave – speak up
Be a Team – deliver together
Be Mindful – we care
If you're inspired by purpose, driven by technical excellence, and passionate about developing people, this is a rare opportunity to make your mark.
About the Role
As our Engineering Manager, you'll lead a talented, multi-disciplinary engineering team responsible for the integrity, reliability and performance of our pipeline systems.
This pivotal leadership role provides engineering direction across all facets of operations — from asset management and process safety to project design and operational technology.
You'll be the organisation's engineering authority — the go-to for technical assurance, discipline leadership, and strategic decision-making.
Your key accountabilities will include:
* Leading and mentoring a team of six senior and specialist engineers across mechanical, electrical, process, and OT disciplines.
* Acting as custodian of our Asset Management Strategy and Operations Governance Framework.
* Providing engineering assurance and oversight of design standards for brownfield and development projects.
* Ensuring pipeline integrity, reliability, and compliance with safety and regulatory standards (including AS 2885).
* Overseeing Operational Technology (SCADA and control systems) to maintain secure and reliable operations.
* Playing an active role in emergency response as a senior technical authority.
This is a hands-on, influential position where your leadership will shape how we operate, innovate, and grow into the future.
About You
You are an experienced engineering leader who brings a blend of technical depth and strategic thinking. You're passionate about building capability, solving complex problems, and driving continuous improvement.
You'll also have:
* A Bachelor's degree (or higher) in Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical or Mechatronics Engineering and CPEng status (essential).
* 10+ years' experience in oil & gas, gas transmission, or a similarly regulated energy sector.
* Strong leadership and mentoring skills with a track record of developing high-performing teams.
* Deep knowledge of pipeline systems, asset management, process safety, and engineering standards.
* The ability to see both the big picture and the technical detail — balancing operational excellence with long-term asset integrity.
Why Join Us
At SEA Gas you'll join a small, high-performing team that values collaboration, accountability, and innovation. We take pride in what we do and how we do it — safely, responsibly, and with care for our people and communities.
You'll enjoy:
* A range of incentives and benefits including a 9 day fortnight.
* A supportive, inclusive culture where your voice matters.
