Supports growth of electrical solutions and services for ports and terminals, focusing on medium-voltage systems.

Work includes concept development, feasibility studies, design review, supplier coordination, site assessments, commissioning support, and safety training.

The role is not limited to candidates with crane or port experience; relevant experience from other industrial and infrastructure sectors is transferable.

Engineering and project delivery

  • Develop medium-voltage solutions for terminal electrical systems, generally within 1 kV to 25 kV.
  • Prepare and review studies, specifications, cost inputs, diagrams, layouts, cable schedules, protection concepts, and equipment interfaces.
  • Support terminal electrification and modernization, including RTG busbars, equipment retrofits, terminal power distribution, and EV chargers.
  • Conduct site surveys, load assessments, infrastructure reviews, and preliminary power-demand studies.
  • Coordinate internal teams and review supplier and subcontractor technical offers.
  • Support design reviews, risk assessments, inspections, testing, commissioning, and technical handover.
  • Provide medium-voltage testing support, including insulation, transformer, relay, continuity, phasing, and earthing checks.

Safety training and customer engagement

  • Deliver onsite medium-voltage safety, arc-flash awareness and risk, and certification training to technicians, supervisors, and engineers.
  • Cover safe switching, isolation, lockout/tagout, permits, earthing, approach boundaries, PPE, emergency response, and absence-of-voltage verification.
  • Maintain training materials, attendance records, competency evidence, and certification documentation.
  • Gather operational feedback, identify risks, and develop potential improvement projects or product opportunities.
  • Follow electrical safety standards, local regulations, HSE policies, customer site rules, and project requirements.

Qualifications and experience

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Engineering, or equivalent; a diploma or equivalent technical qualification may be considered with strong medium-voltage field experience and recognized authorizations.
  • Relevant qualifications and certifications demonstrating expert competence in medium-voltage electrical safety, arc-flash risk awareness or assessment, and safe work practices.
  • Capability to deliver practical onsite training and certification sessions.
  • Experience from utilities, industrial plants, infrastructure, oil and gas, manufacturing, data centres, rail, airports, renewables, or similar sectors is transferable.
