• Proactively manage risk and quality: conduct and support risk assessments, implement mitigation actions, and perform Safety Observation tours for HSE hazards.

Your background

• Degree in Electrical Engineering (or related discipline).
• Approximately 5+ years of experience in power systems engineering for utility/industrial HV and MV substations.
• Proven track record planning and coordinating multidisciplinary engineering scope across tender and execution phases.
