Building on our past. Ready for the future

Worley is a global professional services company of energy, chemicals and resources experts. We partner with customers to deliver projects and create value over the life of their assets. We’re bridging two worlds, moving towards more sustainable energy sources, while helping to provide the energy, chemicals and resources needed now.

Purpose

The Principal Electrical Designer provides senior-level design leadership and technical expertise for electrical design deliverables across major projects. This role is accountable for the quality, consistency, and timely delivery of complex electrical design packages in support of Worley and its customers, while providing technical mentorship to electrical design teams.

Responsibilities

Lead and deliver high-quality electrical design services that meet Worley, client, and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, on time and within budget.
You will be accountable for:
Leading the development, coordination, and quality assurance of electrical design deliverables across the full project lifecycle (concept, FEED, detailed design, and construction support).
Providing technical direction and oversight to electrical designers and drafting teams, including task assignment, workload planning, and design reviews.
Participating in project planning, progress reporting, and compliance with required checking and quality assurance procedures.
Ensuring project scope is clearly defined and that changes are managed in accordance with project change management processes.
Supporting procurement, construction, and commissioning activities, including:
- Review of electrical equipment requisitions and technical bid evaluations
- Input to purchase orders and vendor documentation
- Resolution of site and vendor queries
Coordinating closely with multidisciplinary engineering disciplines (instrumentation, process, mechanical, piping, and automation) to ensure fully integrated electrical designs.
Proactively identifying and resolving discrepancies between Worley and client design standards and requirements.
Providing technical input into constructability, maintainability, and operability reviews.
Supporting and mentoring junior designers and engineers, fostering technical excellence and knowledge sharing within the electrical design team.
Communicating effectively with project stakeholders, including clients, vendors, and construction partners.
Identifying technical risks and issues, developing practical solutions, and escalating when appropriate.

Technical & Industry Experience

Extensive experience delivering complex electrical design on industrial projects (e.g., energy, mining, chemicals, power, or infrastructure).
Strong working knowledge of electrical design systems, workflows, and document management tools (e.g., SAP, KMS, or similar project systems).
Solid understanding of project scope development, workshare execution, and delegation of design activities across internal and external teams.
Familiarity with process safety and operability considerations (e.g., participation in HAZOP/LOPA reviews where electrical systems interface with process safety functions).

Strong working knowledge of core Electrical design deliverables, including:

Electrical single-line diagrams and schematics
Equipment layouts and electrical room layouts
Cable schedules, cable routing, tray and conduit layouts
Power distribution and load lists
Motor control center (MCC) layouts and schematics
Grounding and bonding drawings
Lighting and small power layouts
Area classification and hazardous area electrical layouts
Bills of material
Material requisitions
Construction and engineering work packages

Working knowledge of electrical system design and application, including:

Low and medium voltage power distribution systems
Motor control and variable frequency drives (VFDs)
Lighting systems (industrial and outdoor)
Grounding, bonding, and lightning protection
Hazardous area electrical design and applicable codes/standards

Education, Qualifications & Accreditation

Required:

Accredited Engineering Technology, Design, or related technical qualification (Engineering degree or diploma preferred).
Extensive experience in senior-level Electrical design roles on large, multidisciplinary projects.
Demonstrated ability to interpret, develop, and review complex electrical drawings, schematics, and technical documentation.
Strong communication, coordination, and problem-solving skills.

Preferred (where applicable):

Professional designation or eligibility for professional certification relevant to design or engineering disciplines (e.g., APEGA, ASET, or equivalent).

Moving forward together

We’re committed to building a diverse, inclusive and respectful workplace where everyone feels they belong, can bring themselves, and are heard. We provide equal employment opportunities to all qualified applicants and employees without regard to age, race, creed, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, disability status, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, genetic information, marital status, citizenship status or any other basis as protected by law.

And we're not just talking about it; we're doing it. We're reskilling our people, leveraging transferable skills, and supporting the transition of our workforce to become experts in today's low carbon energy infrastructure and technology.

Whatever your ambition, there’s a path for you here. And there’s no barrier to your potential career success. Join us to broaden your horizons, explore diverse opportunities, and be part of delivering sustainable change.
