Location:
Victoria, Australia

Employment Type: Permanent Full Time

Description:

When you choose AusNet, you'll join genuine people working together, making Real. Progress

At AusNet, we're the link between renewable energy sources and local communities, playing a key role in the clean energy transition and providing essential energy to every Victorian family.

Help us lead the way, while enriching your career with real people who encourage you to bring your best and make real impact – for your career, our communities, and Australia's cleaner energy future.

Purposeful work with genuinely good people. That's refreshing.

We have an opportunity for a Strategy Lead to take the driver's seat in shaping the future of Victoria's transmission network. You'll deliver high-quality insights and recommendations to AusNet's Transmission leadership team, helping guide strategic direction and planning.

Join us as an in-house strategy consultant, tackling complex challenges alongside exceptional peers - without the long hours of traditional consulting.

This role sits within the Transmission Strategy & Regulation team located at Freshwater Place in the heart of Melbourne's CBD.

This role will deliver real outcomes, including but not limited to:

  • Leading strategic deep dives and simplifying complex energy topics
  • Driving long-term strategic agendas and implementation pathways
  • Supporting leadership decision-making through analysis and reporting
  • Collaborating across business units and contributing to portfolio-wide strategy
  • Engaging with internal and external stakeholders to shape AusNet's position in the energy transition

You don't need to check every box; however, we are looking for someone with a strong consulting toolkit and a good combination of:

  • Strong communication skills, especially in storylining
  • Analytical and problem-solving capabilities (structured thinking)
  • Professional polish and presence to engage at board level
  • Strategic experience in energy or consulting (MBB/Big 4 a bonus)
  • Collaborative, personable, and proactive mindset

A real place to belong

We celebrate unique voices, refreshing perspectives and diversity in our team. Engage and connect through our social club, family day, wide range of events or by joining one of our Employee Network Groups.

We believe in more than just competitive pay. Here's what sets us apart:

  • Development: Genuine development opportunities. Strategy roles are incubators for future leaders
  • Flexibility: whether this is hybrid work, flexible hours, or part time arrangements, we'll work with you to help balance work and life.
  • Leave: more than typical personal leave and a generous 14 weeks of paid parental leave, with no minimum service.
  • Community Giving: a paid day to volunteer with our social impact partner, Foodbank, or for a cause that matters to you.
  • Perks: we offer all the other perks you've come to expect like purchased leave, income protection insurance, novated leasing, corporate discounts, private health cover discounts and more.

As an industry in transformation, we're excited by the possibilities ahead.

So, if you're passionate about our purpose and committed to making real progress, bring your energy and join AusNet. Together, we can shape a new way forward.
