- We are here to protect our natural environment and water resources, while powering our world for future generations.
- Role Accountabilities.
- The individual should have extensive experience in TD projects especially in EHV Sub-stations and Transmission Lines (400kV above) in end-to-end project management.
- He should have experience in resolving key issues, and handling execution challenges of Transmission Lines (Statutory/ROW/ Regulatory) as well as Sub-stations (civil erection works) of 400kV and above.
- T&D offers depth and breadth of experience in power delivery facilities like overhead transmission distribution, underground transmission distribution, substation design, renewable power integration, Smart Grid and more, which offer a wide range of design and project execution experiences.
- Structural analysis and design of lattice tower and line poles (Steel, LD, Wood) and loading framing trees, plan & profile drawings, authority permit drawings, wire sag and tension analysis, developing design criteria for transmission line design and creating bill of materials, engineering estimate, and quality control reviews.
- Provide technical leadership, direction and support to the design team.
- Provide technical and engineering expertise along with a guide to identify, analyze and resolve problems.
- Identify the development needs of the team and mentor, coach, and develop team members (engineers, designers, drafters).
- Plan, organize, estimate, schedule and effectively monitor all work activities.
- Support the project team in developing significant engineering solutions.
- Participate in regular meetings and correspond with Clients.
- Taking personal responsibility for the preparation of detailed engineering documentation and leading the engineering effort for the project including providing technical and performance oversight for members of the power team.
- To manage selected projects, project tasks/responsibilities as assigned, and/or design processes (or parts of projects) to meet agreed budget, quality and timeframe targets.
- To deliver fully documented designs to meet Client objectives and Arcadis quality system requirements.
- To develop the technical competency of direct reports/ junior team members and ensure the application of relevant international and Australian standards and engineering knowledge in various projects.
