Design Firm Business Developer

At Siemens, we're passionate about shaping a more sustainable, connected and intelligent world. Through our innovative electrification and automation technologies, we're helping transform Australia's infrastructure, energy, transport, defence, mining and utilities sectors.

We're looking for a commercially minded and strategically driven Design Firm Business Developer to strengthen Siemens' influence across Australia's engineering and design community.

This is an exciting opportunity to build influential industry relationships, shape technical decisions and ensure Siemens is part of the conversation long before major projects reach tender. You'll play an important role in positioning our technologies across some of Australia's most significant infrastructure and electrification projects.

What you'll be doing

This is a strategic, relationship-led role where your ability to influence, connect and identify opportunities early will make a lasting impact.

You'll be responsible for:

• Developing and leading a national strategy to strengthen Siemens' relationships with engineering consultancies, design firms, EPCs and technical decision-makers.
• Building trusted relationships across priority markets including infrastructure, renewables, defence, mining, water and transportation.
• Influencing projects during early design, concept development and FEED stages to increase the inclusion of Siemens technologies in technical specifications and design standards.
• Representing Siemens through technical workshops, industry forums, presentations, demonstrations and thought leadership initiatives.
• Identifying major projects and opportunities before they reach tender, building early pipeline visibility and working closely with sales teams to drive commercial outcomes.
• Promoting Siemens' integrated Electrification & Automation portfolio, including MV and LV switchgear, protection, automation, digitalisation and SF6-free technologies.
• Establishing strategic relationships with senior decision-makers across Australia's leading consulting and engineering organisations.

Initially, your focus will be on building market presence, establishing relationships and strengthening Siemens' specification influence, with increasing accountability for pipeline development and commercial outcomes as the strategy matures.

What we're looking for

We're interested in someone who combines commercial acumen, technical credibility and exceptional relationship-building skills.

You'll ideally bring:

• Experience in business development, technical sales, specification management, consulting engineering or strategic market development.
• A background in electrification, energy, infrastructure, utilities, industrial technology or a related engineering environment.
• Experience engaging with engineering consultancies, design firms, EPCs, developers or major end customers.
• An understanding of the project lifecycle, particularly early-stage design, specification and tender processes.
• Strong influencing, communication and presentation skills, with the confidence to engage stakeholders at all levels.
• A proactive, strategic and commercially minded approach, with the ability to turn relationships into long-term opportunities.

Exposure to MV/LV distribution, switchgear, protection, automation or digitalisation technologies will be highly regarded.
