EOI Project Engineer – HV Electrical

Summary:
 
NSW infrastructure spend is at the highest level ever ($41bn) and once internal restructures are defined, there will be a huge requirement for skilled contract staff with rail power experience.

A large proportion of money will be spent on power upgrades to help cope with the increase in rail traffic, as well as power for brand new rail networks such as the Sydney Metro.
