About Us 

At Transgrid, our work improves the lives of millions – from lighting up sports fields, schools and homes, to powering the wheels of commerce and everything else in between. Now it’s your turn to make it happen. 

This is an exciting time in the energy industry with the transition to renewable energy. Recent government policy documents outline plans to facilitate increasing transmission interconnection between states and development of renewable energy zones.

This site-based role offers the opportunity to directly influence safety outcomes on the ground, working closely with internal and external stakeholders to deliver high-impact results across NSW.
