Lead, design, and shape Dunedin's future networks with Delta!
Delta is a smart thinking infrastructure specialist. We construct, manage, and maintain electricity supply and environmental infrastructure. Every day we make a difference in the lives of New Zealanders. We make communities better for people to live, work and play in – keeping the lights on, the trees trimmed and the parks green.
Looking to take your design and estimating expertise to the next level? We’re on the hunt for a Senior Designer Estimator to join our Dunedin team, where you’ll play a key role in delivering network designs that meet the highest standards while keeping customer needs at the heart of every project. If you thrive on creating practical engineering solutions and enjoy seeing your work come to life, this is the role for you!
In this role, you’ll not only deliver accurate and timely designs, estimates, and proposals but also act as a trusted mentor and coach to other designers. You’ll collaborate closely with Project Managers, customers, and operational teams to ensure projects are scoped and packaged effectively, reducing rework and driving quality outcomes. As a key contact in the absence of the Planning Manager, you’ll bring both technical leadership and collaboration to the forefront.
We’re looking for someone who leads by example, embraces innovation, and builds strong relationships. At Delta, you’ll be part of a supportive team culture that values growth, accountability, and continuous improvement. If you’re ready to shape the future of our networks while developing your leadership impact, we’d love to hear from you!
You’ll bring a solid engineering background (such as a BE (Electrical) or equivalent experience), along with strong expertise in electrical network design and the use of estimating and draughting software. Your ability to coach, develop, and mentor others will be matched by sharp analytical and problem-solving skills that drive continuous improvement. To thrive in this role, you’ll also be a natural communicator and collaborator—organised, achievement-focused, and ready to model Delta’s values every day.
