Graduate - Engineering (Mechanical) (Brisbane City)

The Opportunity At APA, our purpose is to secure Australia’s energy future. We’re not doing it alone. We’re doing it with our customers and communities as Australia’s energy infrastructure partner, a role our unique experience and expertise positions us to play. Our Graduate Program At APA we’re not just about pipelines and power – we’re about powering potential. Our graduates are permanent employees from day one, so your rotational program is your launchpad into the dynamic world of energy infrastructure. What’s in it for you?
- Real work, real impact: From day one, you’ll be tackling meaningful projects that contribute to keeping Australia’s energy flowing.
- Structured development: Your 2-year program offers a mix of on-the-job-learning, formal professional development, and mentoring to accelerate your growth.
- Diverse opportunities: Rotate through different teams aligned to your program to gain a broad understanding of our operations and build the skills required to thrive in our industry.

Our Engineering Program By joining our Engineering Program in 2027, you’ll gain exposure across the full asset lifecycle – from design and project delivery through to operations and maintenance. With the flexibility to build capabilities aligned to your interests and strengths, you’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with experienced engineers and industry experts, learning how to apply technical judgement in real-world, high-impact environments. As your career takes shape, you’ll have the opportunity to build depth and direction in one of two complementary pathways. You may specialise in project delivery, focusing on the design, construction and commissioning of new growth projects, or pursue a pathway centred on the safety, reliability and long-term performance of existing and newly built infrastructure. If you’re ready to develop your engineering skills on critical energy assets and shape Australia’s energy future, our Engineering Program is your place to start. About You
