**INTRODUCTION**:
Are you passionate about **_what makes complex capital projects really tick_**—are you curious how the business and projects worlds combine to deliver future assets? Are you interested in how the energy world is transitioning? Do you love **_making connections and solving puzzles _**or problems? Are you that rare combination of detailed and focused, and yet you have broad interests and ideas? Do you enjoy analytical research work while also **_comfortable being client-facing_**_?_

**ABOUT THE ROLE**:
We have an opening in our Australian office for an Energy Sector Capital Project Analyst with experience in Exploration & Production (E&P) and/or renewables sectors. The role is one with potential to **_become a consultant and trusted advisor in your specialisation _**in Industry.

IPA’s client portfolio includes world-leading companies in both heavy and light industries around the world. IPA has offices in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, China, Melbourne, Perth, Brazil, and Singapore; as such, major industry leaders globally rely on us to assess the health of their capital project systems and provide recommendations to improve their performance. We examine cost, schedule, and asset quality, with a strong focus on risk management activities to drive project success. The **_IPA project databases are unique_** and are the most comprehensive sources of capital project experience in existence. IPA also takes a leading role in empirical research into the drivers of better projects and project systems, using our extensive databases of past project performance.

**DAY IN THE LIFE**:
Responsibilities of the Project Analyst role include client-interfacing work to collect and analyse project technical data, writing reports with insight and customer-focus, delivery of verbal (including virtual delivery) feedback and public presentations, and working directly with capital project teams and project organisations to improve business competitiveness. Responsibilities also include the ability to conduct research on the drivers of project success and failure using statistics and the projects database.

IPA analysts must have excellent written and oral communication skills and display the interpersonal skills needed to develop and maintain relationships at senior levels with client companies. The position requires solid analytical skills and the ability to analyse and understand various levels of metrics in the assessment of overall project status. Flexibility is on offer and a lifestyle of travelling extensively is part of the deal (or adapting fast to virtual platforms). Travel is primarily within Australia and Asia Pacific, although it may extend to the United States, and is primarily on weekdays.
