  • Communicate with clients to address technical inquiries, discuss issues, and confirm resolutions
  • Ensure compliance with corporate, client, and industry safety standards

Requirements

  • Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems Electrician Journeyman Ticket, or Electrical Engineering Technologist Diploma from a recognized institute
  • 4+ years of protection & control relay testing experience within the electrical utilities industry
  • Hands-on experience with advanced relay test sets (e.g., Omicron CMC356, CMC500).
  • Ability to work extended rotations and travel to project sites as required
  • Excellent communication, interpersonal, and organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and general computer applications
  • Proven analytical, risk assessment, and problem-solving abilities

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
