Undergraduate Electrical Engineers

Be part of Australia’s renewable energy future

UGL’s New Energy team is right in the middle of some of the most exciting renewable and storage projects happening across Australia. We’re delivering major battery energy storage systems (BESS), wind and solar projects, and front end engineering, construction and maintenance for clients across the country, from Western Downs and Collie, to new developments in WA, QLD, NSW and SA.

About the role

We’re looking for Sydney based Electrical Engineering university undergraduates (ideally 2nd or 3rd year) to join our New Energy team based out of our North Sydney head office. These roles offer genuine engineering experience and exposure to a mix of electrical design, project work, procurement support and tender development.

You’ll be supported by highly regarded Lead Engineers, known for being technically exceptional, approachable, and very invested in developing undergraduates.

Why this role

  • Real meaningful engineering work.

  • Mentorship from senior engineers who are highly respected and known for bringing out the best in undergraduates.

  • A direct pathway into our Graduate Program or potentially junior engineering roles.

  • Involvement in major renewable projects shaping Australia’s transition to a clean energy future.

  • Strong team culture; supportive, collaborative, and genuinely enjoyable to work with.

  • Steady workload with constant opportunities to learn and grow.

Key responsibilities

  • Collaborate on the development of scopes, technical requirements, and early-stage design for major electrical equipment and engineering projects.

  • Manage supplier engagement, including sourcing, pricing, and reviewing technical information for equipment.

  • Create and maintain engineering registers and ensure equipment aligns with specifications.

  • Assist with tenders, project bids, and supporting the team with practical, on-site problem-solving as needed.
