Stanwell recruits emerging engineers

Stanwell is powering up the futures of early-career engineers through the launch of its new Engineering Early Careers Acceleration Program.

Through the program, six diverse engineering roles will be available across Stanwell’s three sites: Tarong power station in the South Burnett, Stanwell Power Station near Rockhampton and Brisbane.

The program will be open to recent graduates and engineers with up to five years of post-grad experience, offering experience in real-world energy operations, mentorship from industry leaders, and tailored development pathways.

The successful applicants will be able to secure hands-on experience, professional development, and work-life balance.

Stanwell General Manager Southern Generation, Mick Joy said Stanwell’s new program would be a game-changer for engineers looking to build their careers in regional Queensland.

“This program is a chance to work on real projects, with real impact, in one of the most critical industries,” Mr Joy said.

“At Tarong power stations, our engineers are immersed in complex systems and real operational challenges from day one.

“It’s a place where you can grow professionally while enjoying the lifestyle and community of the South Burnett.”

The available roles span mechanical, electrical, process, and computer science engineering disciplines, with flexible start dates and relocation support available.

Stanwell’s commitment to diversity, inclusion and wellbeing is embedded throughout the program.

Each role offers flexible work options including four-day weeks at both regional sites and work-from-home arrangements for Brisbane, as well as professional development, and comprehensive health, safety and wellbeing support.

Applications are now open and close 3 August. For more information or to apply, visit: www.stanwell.com/careers-at-stanwell
