Due to ongoing demand for our services, we are seeking a Control Systems Engineer to join our team in Townsville, Queensland.  Our forward workload is growing and is based on steady demand from many of our market sectors, with a combination of greenfield infrastructure projects and plant upgrades.  RPEQ registration would be highly regarded, as well experience in designing automation systems using a range of hardware brands, in particular Schneider, Siemens and Rockwell.  PLC programming, SCADA configuration and a good knowledge of telemetry systems are essential.

This role will require direct interfacing with Clients, and accordingly it requires excellent communications and business skills.

Our Gladstone Branch has a vacancy for a full-time CAD Drafter or CAD Tracer with experience in prepararing and modifying electrical drawings.

Whilst the primary requirement is for at least 2 years’ AutoCAD experience, an equivalent proficiency in Microstation will also be considered.

This role involves working within small engineering project teams across the Welcon organisation, and delivering high quality work, under the supervision of our Senior CAD Designer.

The majority of work will be office-based, however opportunities to travel to industrial and utility sites will occur on occasions.  These visits will require appropriate industrial PPE to be worn and client inductions to be completed.

Applicants for the CAD Tracer position will need to demonstrate completion of a relevant TAFE or similar course.

Applicants for the CAD Drafter position will be required to have completed a Certificate or Diploma in electrical engineering studies.

Welcon employees enjoy a flexible, supportive, family-friendly environment, with a nine-day fortnight.

Join our Graduate Development Program, where new graduates and junior engineers are exposed to a number of work experiences and specific training modules.  Always supervised under registered senior engineers, our graduates develop quickly with a combination of office-based learning and site experience.   Our forward workload is growing and is based on steady demand from many of our market sectors, with a combination of greenfield infrastructure projects and plant upgrades.

Our clients include many of Australia’s blue-chip companies, and as an Electrical Engineer with Welcon, you will gain exposure to industries ranging from mining and industrial, through to utilities and government.  But it’s not just about sitting behind a computer in an office, you must enjoy getting out on site, taking responsibility, meeting with clients, getting hands-on with programming, testing, commissioning and troubleshooting.

We are looking for a degree-qualified engineer, who wants to learn how to utilise their university learnings in real-world applications. This role will suit final year students who expect to graduate later this year, as well as qualified engineers with one or two years’ engineering experience.
