About the role

About us

Worley is a global company of energy, chemicals and resources experts headquartered in Australia. We partner with our customers to deliver projects and create value across the life of their assets. We specialize in consulting, engineering, procurement and construction across the project lifecycle, with services extending through to operations and decommissioning. Leveraging extensive experience and AI-enabled delivery, we support customers in navigating complexity as they meet today's needs and transition to more sustainable solutions.

Play an integral role in delivering safe, high-quality electrical construction outcomes by working directly in the field where design intent meets real-world execution. As an Electrical Field Engineer, you will be a trusted technical authority on site, partnering closely with construction, engineering, and commissioning teams to resolve challenges, adapt designs to site conditions, and ensure work is executed in full alignment with project specifications, standards, and schedules.

Purpose of the role

You will be responsible for providing hands-on electrical engineering expertise during the construction phase of projects. This includes interpreting design documentation, addressing constructability and field conditions, overseeing construction activities, and ultimately validating that completed electrical work meets approved designs and regulatory requirements. Acting as a technical specialist, you will also provide guidance to site leadership and contribute to sound decision-making across multiple work fronts.

Core Responsibilities

  • You will be responsible for interpreting electrical designs, drawings, specifications, and standards, translating them into clear, actionable direction for construction teams.

  • Provide on-site engineering support to resolve design conflicts, field changes, and constructability issues while maintaining design intent and safety requirements.

  • Review and approve electrical installation work, ensuring compliance with project specifications, codes, and quality standards prior to system turnover.

  • Act as a lead electrical field engineer when appropriate, assigning work, providing technical direction, and mentoring engineers or technicians on smaller projects.

  • Coordinate closely with construction supervision, commissioning, and project management to align priorities, schedules, and technical solutions.

  • Make independent technical decisions and recommendations that may carry financial, environmental, and organizational impact, with a focus on practical, risk-aware outcomes.

  • Prepare and deliver technical reports, field instructions, presentations, and recommendations to stakeholders and management.

  • Support troubleshooting of electrical systems, tools, and processes, assisting others in resolving complex technical issues.

  • Ensure all work adheres to company policies, project procedures, and applicable regulatory requirements.
