Unison Contracting

Fluid Recruitment is proud to exclusively partner with Unison Contracting Services Limited in searching for a Designer to join the Hawke's Bay depot.

About Unison

Community owned for over 100 years; Unison Group has built a strong reputation for its supportive team culture and shared commitment to building a sustainable future within the energy sector.

Unison Contracting is one of several subsidiaries in the Unison Group operating within the electricity sector. Unison Contracting is a specialist service provider in power, civil, and vegetation services to Unison Networks as well as other electricity distribution networks and customers across the country.

The Role

Based in Hastings, you will play a key role in designing, costing, and providing technical support to a varied range of electrical distribution projects.

Working on both overhead and underground, you will ensure projects are efficient, safe, and compliant with industry standards and regulations.

Liasing with stakeholders, you’ll be key in setting projects up for success; from scoping and setting technical specifications, to contributing to the works methodology, and providing technical support during the delivery process.

About You

Pragmatic and open minded, you could come from a range of backgrounds within the electrical sector.

Existing design experience is desirable, either within distribution or a related electrical environment.

Alternatively, you could come from a field-based role such as a Line Mechanic, Electrical Fitter, or Project Coordinator, while having a genuine interest in design.

Either way, you will bring a relevant electrical qualification and have experience designing distribution construction or leading/coordination experience, with a keen eye for detail.

The Opportunity

Join a passionate and growing team with a supportive culture, where there is genuine opportunity to develop your skills, progress your career, and mentor others as you grow within the industry.

You will get to design network and customer projects, on a well-built network. Working within a structured environment with mature processes and systems, you will be led by a manager that values their people and actively promotes building capability and standardisation.

A competitive remuneration package is on offer including:

  • Health insurance
  • Life and income protection insurance
  • Relocation support (if needed)
  • Modern fleet, tools and equipment
  • Company iPhone and branded clothing allowance
  • $200 annual wellbeing subsidy and corporate discounts

About Hawke’s Bay

Based in Hawke’s Bay, you’ll enjoy a lifestyle that’s well known for its sunshine, coastal scenery, and relaxed pace. With beaches, wineries, and plenty of outdoor activities on your doorstep, it’s a region that combines lifestyle appeal with strong industry opportunity. Relocation support is on offer!
