What would the person handle?

Use these example responsibilities to define the scope, expected outputs and decisions your team needs to review.

Prepare electrical designs and supporting calculations

Review equipment and system integration requirements

Submit documentation for authorised technical review

Illustrative responsibilities for your brief, not an advertised vacancy or a fixed staffing package.

What experience and systems matter?

Ask for experience completing comparable work with the level of independence your team expects. Discuss the volume, complexity and quality checks for each responsibility.

  • Electrical design tools
  • schematics
  • calculation records

The systems above are examples. Name your actual tools, access requirements and training arrangements in the brief.

How can we assess the work?

Review a relevant work sample and a bounded technical exercise. Discuss assumptions, drawing or calculation checks and when to escalate.

Example task for discussion

Prepare electrical designs and supporting calculations.

Ask the candidate to explain the inputs they need, their approach, the checks they would make and the handover they would provide.

Your Team Leads

  • What discipline, software and design standards apply?
  • Which tasks can be completed remotely and which require site work?
  • Who holds the required professional responsibility and approves designs?
