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.

The Opportunity | 12m fixed-term contract

In this role, you’ll be a trusted trainer and advisor, helping our Major Projects teams build the skills they need to work safely and effectively. Your primary focus will be delivering and assessing PSSR training across key project sites, particularly HumeLink. You’ll use a variety of training methods to suit different learning styles and environments, including project camps and JV facilities.

You will also contribute to the design and improvement of training materials to ensure they’re practical, relevant, and engaging. When not delivering PSSR training, you’ll have the opportunity to support other technical training activities aligned with the broader Technical Trainer role.

This is a field-based role that can be based at any Transgrid depot, including Eastern Creek, Newcastle, Orange, Tamworth, Wagga Wagga, or Yass. The role involves regular travel across southern NSW, covering locations from Bannaby to Wagga Wagga and from Tumut to Maragle. While applications are welcomed from all listed locations, Wagga Wagga and Yass are the preferred base locations.

We are committed to helping our people grow – you’ll be supported to develop your skills in training delivery, methods, and processes, with access to ongoing upskilling opportunities.
