Company Description

Our client is a leader in EV charging infrastructure and fleet electrification, providing cutting-edge solutions for large-scale fleet operators transitioning to zero-emission transport. As a trusted partner in the industry, we specialize in charge management systems, energy optimization, and technical consulting to ensure seamless EV infrastructure deployment. We work with some of the largest fleets globally, solving complex technical challenges to enable a smooth transition to electric mobility

Job Description

1. Mission for the Role

The Technical Project Manager (AUS) supports customers throughout the fleet electrification lifecycle, combining EV charging infrastructure expertise with the delivery of our client’s Charge Management System (CMS).

The role provides technical leadership from early planning and concept development through infrastructure implementation, system onboarding and operational handover. During planning and design development, it acts as a trusted subject matter expert, advising on charging infrastructure and technology selection, electrical and communications requirements, site concept design, and depot and grid upgrade planning. It also supports tender evaluation and technical assessment, coordinates stakeholder and design-review workshops, reviews contractor designs and technical submissions, and identifies technical risks, gaps and constructability issues before they affect delivery.

Once charging infrastructure has been installed and commissioned, the role leads the transition into our client. This includes onboarding chargers and supporting site equipment, validating configurations and integrations, coordinating end-to-end testing and operational readiness, and guiding customers through training, process change and adoption of the new CMS.

Across this lifecycle, the Technical Project Manager is responsible for keeping projects commercially and operationally on track. They coordinate customers, contractors, OEMs and internal teams; oversee the commissioning and integration of our client equipment; and ensure that testing, documentation, compliance and handover requirements are completed to the required standard.
