Prosple Profiles

I love that my job still requires an application of electrical engineering theory – in some roles I have definitely had to dust off the old university textbooks and brush up on some concepts. The application of this theory and realising it out in the field is very rewarding.

My job is satisfying because I have accountability for each step, and I am learning the whole process rather than handling just a part of it.

I enjoy working on tasks that aim to add value to our customer experience and in turn, seeing how certain initiatives have improved end-users’ satisfaction.

I can lead my projects and tackle them in my own way, and I always have guidance and support from my team members. The flexible start and finish times and the supportive team environment are also other perks of working with Western Power.

I would like to acknowledge how fortunate I am to still be working and in good health. I have certainly been very lucky, and my heart goes out to those who have been affected by COVID-19.

Western Power is a utility company at the end of the day, and there are many opportunities to make a career here working in non-engineering disciplines as well. Experience and passion count for a lot.

I have always enjoyed maths and science throughout high school so I wanted a career which would reflect this.

I am currently running my own project that’s related to our ECOFIT modernisation workshop in Brisbane where I am tasked with executing a customer event.
