Engineering & Infrastructure Superintendent – PER001L3
HSE Superintendent – PER001L5
Business Improvement / LEAN Superintendent – PER0018A
Mechanical Engineer – PER0018E
Electrical Engineer – PER0018D

These roles will be located in the Perth CBD for approximately 12-14 months and will then transition into a family friendly 8+6 FIFO roster.

Please see below proposed dates for events.

I am assuming that you have been to one or some of the events so that you have some understanding of the usual setup. Most events in 2010 had up to 200 people attend (we had to limit RSVPs due to a huge response); we try to stick to venues in the CBD/West Perth/East Perth. Most events are either a Thursday or Friday 5.30-7.30pm Sundowner style with 20 minute talk, or a longer talk at a breakfast function. Open to different ideas and concepts…

Cost will depend on how you do it, if you self cater at your own venue it will be cheaper, alternatively you can put a fixed amount on the bar and people can buy their own drinks. In summary a function can cost between $1000 and $15000. The minimum would be provision of a venue and some food. I hope this is enough information; most of you will have someone in your organisation that can work out what you might spend on a function based on numbers.

We can help you find someone to co-sponsor an event if this suits you better.

Following on from the success of the the second one day seminar in September we will be running something similar again in 2011 and we will looking for sponsors for this too.

Please submit expressions of interest asap to get the date that you would prefer. Also for the September seminar to get in on the ground floor!

Our industry is faced with (another) looming skills shortage and if we want well-qualified engineers we need to support them with vacation work opportunities. Vac work is also an ideal way of showcasing your company to prospective employees, and building a relationship with people in our future recruitment pool.

If you are able to offer a vacation work role to an engineering student (any discipline), even if it is for 6 weeks rather than 12, please contact me at stanborough@internode.on.net. I am currently mentoring a student looking for chemical engineering vacation work, but in the event that I receive interest from more than one company or for a variety of engineering disciplines, Sabina and I will use our connections within university careers centres to match you with suitable candidates still looking for vac work.

Regards,

Miriam Stanborough
