2023 Graduate Operations Planning Engineers null

Transpower graduates develop the technical expertise, skills, and behaviour necessary to succeed in engineering roles throughout the business.

They complete a circa two-year rotational programme, with regular coaching and mentoring from a range of experts, that will provide an overview of Power System careers at Transpower. They may be part of:

• Ensuring a secure and reliable grid by assessing daily risks and longer-term issues
• Conducting assessment and coordination of outages to enable secure and efficient access to the power system
• Reviewing plans to enable commissioning of new power system assets, and assessing the impact of assets or network changes to our models
• Liaising with Transmission Analysts or planners in generation or other power system companies
• Providing plans, advice and data for the real-time control room teams on operational engineering to maintain system security

Building relationships across the business, our graduates rotate through different engineering areas to gain both technical understanding and depth, and outstanding people skills - along with a good understanding of both internal and external customers.  

Ultimately, our grads explore where and how they wish to shape their Engineering careers with us.
