You have the opportunity to gain a wealth of expertise and a diverse range of skills, providing insight and knowledge without losing sight of your work-life balance or wellbeing.
In this role, you'll:
Work closely with the Energy Corporation of NSW (EnergyCo), who is leading the design, delivery and coordination of NSW's Renewable Energy Zones.

Construction of the transmission infrastructure and generation projects in Renewable Energy Zones (REZ) will require delivery of large and heavy components via the State Road network.

This role is central to supporting the state's Renewable Energy Zones (REZ), managing the development and delivery of works to enable the transportation of oversize and over-mass (OSOM) components such as wind turbine towers, blades, transformers and synchronous condensers.

Experience with the Review of Environmental Factors (REF) process and project lifecycle documentation (Gate 0–6) will be highly regarded.
The ideal candidate is a resilient and adaptable leader with excellent communication, problem-solving and conflict resolution skills. You will have a proven track record of developing and/or delivering complex transport or infrastructure projects, influencing outcomes across multiple agencies, and driving process improvements.
