Engineering support for various projects. As a grad, you get great exposure to the variety of work that Transpower undertakes, and you get to add value by being part of different projects and tasks. I'm using a lot of PLS-CADD to ensure that our assets are complying with the safety standards. Also working on several investigation projects to minimise safety risks. Also, working on concept assessments which require collaboration and high level design work.

Transpower is the national grid operator. It takes a whole-of-industry view of the electricity sector and operates the system on behalf of NZers.

Pros and cons of working at Transpower

Pros

  • The people are really supportive and are always willing to help you out.

  • Graduates can be given numerous opportunities to see the many different assets that Transpower owns and operates.

  • Transpower has 7 am-7 pm office hours and is very flexible as long as you communicate and get your work done.

  • There is a strong community of young professionals and plenty of opportunities to socialise with colleagues after work.

  • There is a whole sustainability group, with projects like recycling glass insulators and volunteer days to plant trees.

Cons

    • The workload can fluctuate based on the placement team.

    • Has the ability to work from home but that's a discussion to have with the manager, highly recommended coming into the office for better engagement and development.

    • In the graduate programme, graduates are given a taste of doing design work, but this is only offered through a brief 2-month placement at an external engineering consultancy.

    • Ambiguity of my role within the business.

    • The graduate programme was a bit disorganised this year as placements were only finalised 3 months after we started.
