We are seeking a highly skilled Cost Control Analyst to join our team at Origin Energy. As a key member of our project controls and cost management teams, you will play a crucial role in ensuring the successful delivery of our execution projects, including renewable energy developments and power generation upgrades.

Your primary responsibility will be to coordinate and manage the costs of our projects, providing guidance on cost management processes and ensuring effective project controls. You will work closely with project managers and other stakeholders to deliver accurate financial oversight and maintain cost efficiency to achieve project goals.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop and maintain cost management processes and systems for projects, including renewables and power generation.

You will also need strong experience with Microsoft Office (intermediate to advanced), PRISM, and SAP, as well as excellent analytical skills with the ability to interpret complex data sets.

Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with diverse teams are essential, as is attention to detail and a proactive approach to problem-solving.

Relevant tertiary qualifications in finance, accounting, engineering, or a related discipline are highly desirable.
