Lead a Landmark Rare Earths Project from the Client Side

Are you an experienced Electrical Superintendent or Construction Lead looking to step into a true owner's team role? This is a rare opportunity to represent a major project owner and influence the safe, efficient and successful delivery of one of Australia's most significant mineral processing developments.
Working on a major construction project in Western Australia, you'll be the key electrical representative in the field, providing oversight of EPCM and contractor activities while ensuring electrical works are delivered safely, efficiently and in line with project objectives. Rather than managing trades directly, you'll focus on governance, contractor performance, stakeholder engagement and project outcomes.

Why You'll Want This Role
  • Join the owner's team and play a key role in delivering a nationally significant rare earths project.
  • Influence major electrical construction activities from installation through to commissioning and handover.
  • Work alongside senior project leaders, EPCM partners and contractors while maintaining independent oversight of project delivery.
The Opportunity

As the Construction Electrical Lead, you'll provide senior-level oversight of electrical construction works across multiple work fronts, ensuring contractors deliver safely, efficiently and in accordance with project requirements. You'll be a highly visible presence on site, monitoring progress, managing interfaces, identifying risks and driving solutions to keep the project moving forward.
You will work closely with construction, engineering and commissioning teams to coordinate activities, support commissioning readiness and ensure electrical systems transition smoothly from construction through to energisation and handover.

This role offers the opportunity to apply your technical expertise while influencing safety, quality, schedule and contractor performance at a strategic level.

About You You are likely to be an experienced:
  • Electrical Superintendent
  • Electrical Supervisor
  • E&I Superintendent
  • Construction Lead
  • Senior Electrical Construction Professional
You'll bring extensive experience on mining, resources, minerals processing, heavy industrial or major infrastructure projects and have the confidence to engage with contractors, EPCM personnel and senior project stakeholders.

Experience within owner-side, client-side or EPCM environments will be highly regarded, along with exposure to HV/LV infrastructure, substations, commissioning and major project delivery.

To succeed in this role, you'll possess:
  • An electrical trade or recognised electrical qualification.
  • Demonstrated experience leading large-scale electrical construction activities.
  • Strong knowledge of HV/LV systems, electrical safety and energisation processes.
  • Experience working through construction, testing, completion and handover phases.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and contractor engagement skills.
  • The ability to identify risks early and drive practical solutions in a complex project environment.
Take the Next Step If you're looking for a senior client-side opportunity where you can influence project outcomes, challenge contractor performance and help deliver a major resources development, we'd love to hear from you.

ALL APPLICANTS MUST HAVE PERMANENT RESIDENCY OR CITIZENSHIP WITHIN AUSTRALIA.
