You will gain hands-on exposure to HVDC technology, on-site testing, project execution, and international collaboration-an ideal opportunity to grow into a future Commissioning Manager.

Expect extensive travel-up to 75% of your time on-site, with assignments ranging from 6 to 12 months globally. When home, we offer flexibility in your work location.
