Job Description

About AMS

Aerodrome Management Services (AMS) is a leading provider of
aviation and aerodrome management services across Australia. We deliver
specialist technical, operational and compliance expertise to aerodrome owners
and operators, supporting safe, efficient and sustainable airport operations.

The work you do here has a direct and visible impact on
operational outcomes, not just theoretical designs. Our Technical Services team
works across a diverse portfolio of projects, providing engineering, design,
and advisory services for aerodrome infrastructure nationwide.

About the Role

AMS is seeking a skilled Electrical Engineer to join
our Technical Services team, based at our head office near Perth Airport.

This role provides specialist engineering and consultancy
services across aerodrome electrical infrastructure, including airfield ground
lighting (AGL), navigation aids, control systems and power distribution
networks.

While Perth-based, the role includes regular travel to
regional and remote aerodromes to support inspections, investigations, project
delivery and commissioning activities.

You will play a key role across the full project
lifecycle—from concept and design through to construction, commissioning and
ongoing asset management.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and review
    aerodrome electrical systems (AGL, NAVAIDs, control systems, power
    networks)
  • Oversight of electrical
    design and compliance assurance
  • Management of stakeholder
    standards and specifications documentation and auditing
  • Perform engineering
    analysis (load, fault level, power quality, lighting design)
  • Involvement in electrical
    tenders and stakeholder engagement
  • Prepare and review
    drawings, specifications and technical documentation
  • Provide technical advice
    on asset performance, condition and lifecycle
  • Conduct peer reviews of
    internal and external designs
  • Undertake site
    inspections, surveys and condition assessments
  • Support installation,
    testing and commissioning activities
  • Monitor construction to
    ensure compliance with design, safety and quality standards
  • Assist with procurement,
    including technical evaluations and contract documentation
  • Collaborate with
    multidisciplinary teams and contribute to project delivery
  • Travel to regional and
    remote aerodromes as required
  • Ensure compliance with
    CASA Part 139 MOS and relevant standards
  • Apply QA/QC processes and
    review deliverables for accuracy and completeness
  • Liaise with clients,
    contractors and aerodrome operators
  • Prepare technical reports,
    briefings and design documentation
  • Contribute to project
    scoping, proposals and tender submissions

About You

You are a technically capable and solutions-focused
Electrical Engineer with an interest in aviation infrastructure. You are
comfortable working across both office-based design and site-based project
environments.

You’ll also contribute to the integration and review of
modern electrical infrastructure, including Extra Low Voltage (ELV) and
solar/battery storage systems. This will involve ensuring designs align with
relevant Australian Standards (including AS/NZS 5139 where applicable), as well
as reviewing and verifying compliance with client-specific electrical standards
and specifications to ensure safe, reliable and fit-for-purpose outcomes

You will bring:

  • Tertiary qualifications in
    Electrical Engineering
  • Experience in electrical
    design, power systems or infrastructure projects
  • Strong analytical and
    problem-solving skills
  • Well-developed written and
    verbal communication skills
  • Ability to manage multiple
    priorities and work both independently and collaboratively

Highly regarded:

  • Experience with airfield
    ground lighting or aerodrome electrical systems
  • Knowledge of CASA Part 139
    or aviation standards
  • Licenced Chartered
    Engineer
  • Exposure to Extra Low
    Voltage (ELV) systems and solar/battery storage design (e.g. AS/NZS 5139)
  • Experience in
    commissioning, site supervision or contractor management
  • Exposure to renewable or
    solar-integrated power systems

Why AMS?

At AMS, you’ll be part of a business that plays a critical
role in Australia’s aviation industry, particularly across regional and remote
communities. You’ll gain hands-on experience across multiple areas of the
business, working on projects that have real impact rather than theoretical
outcomes.

We offer a highly collaborative environment where you’ll
have direct access to senior leaders, giving you a rare opportunity to learn
how strategic decisions are made and implemented. Over the course of the
graduateship, you’ll build not only your technical and analytical skills, but
also your commercial awareness, professional confidence and ability to
influence outcomes.

  • Learn and grow from
    industry leading professionals
  • Varied, hands-on role with
    real ownership and impact
  • Supportive team
    environment
