Principal Consultant - Corrosion & Coatings​​
​
Lumen | North Island (flexible)
​
Corrosion never stops, and neither do we! We’re looking for a Principal Consultant who knows corrosion and coatings inside out. This is a senior role with a real chance to shape how this work gets done in New Zealand.
​
The role
You’ll run coating inspections, corrosion investigations, condition assessments and failure analysis across our Energy, Protective and Marine work. You’ll take projects from proposal through to delivery, build your own client relationships and mentor our graduates and inspectors. Expect fieldwork and travel around New Zealand.
​
About you
AMPP CIP Level 2 or Level 3 (formerly NACE CIP2/CIP3) is essential, along with the kind of judgement that only comes from time in the field. You’re self-motivated but a team player, with a good commercial head for proposals, tenders and budgets.
​
Why Lumen?
We’re a 100% employee-owned consultancy with a genuine path to becoming a shareholder. You’ll join a supportive, down-to-earth team, and we pay competitively for the seniority of the role.
​
The North Island is our preference, but we’ll happily talk with the right person wherever they are.

Current Vacancies
Field Testing Technician / Inspector​​​
Lumen | Adelaide
​
If you've worked on lines or in substations and you'd rather be out on a transmission easement in regional South Australia than stuck in a depot, read on.
​
Our Electrical and Asset Management team in Adelaide is growing, and we're looking for an experienced Field Testing Technician / Inspector to join the crew.
The role
This is a permanent, hands-on field role for someone who wants to make a career of inspecting and testing HV assets. It's not an engineering role or a stepping stone to a desk. You'll be on the road across SA and occasionally interstate, with most weeknights away from home. Travel is fully supported with allowances, and we handle all accommodation.
​
You'll carry out condition assessments of overhead lines, substations and associated HV assets, record and analyse test data to client specifications, and help deliver inspection and maintenance programmes on time and on budget. You'll work daily with landowners, clients and site crews on projects that matter to the energy transition. Full training is provided.
​
About you
You'll have at least a couple of years' experience on overhead lines or substations, in any capacity, with a background in electrical, lines, substation, NDT, corrosion or civil technical work. Condition assessment, inspection or testing experience is a real advantage. You're practical, reliable, confident with test equipment, accurate with data and comfortable working on your own for stretches.
​
You'll need a full Australian driver's licence, a willingness to undergo a pre-employment medical, and a genuine willingness to travel and spend nights away.
