What you will do:

• Identify, analyse, and escalate risks and issues that could impact timely delivery of releases, ensuring proactive resolution and governance oversight.
• Environment Lifecycle Management
• Oversee the full lifecycle of non-production environments, including provisioning, configuration, refreshes, booking, monitoring, maintenance, patching, and documentation.
• Environment Liaison & Support
• Act as the point of contact for environment-related inquiries, managing availability, usage, and timely provisioning to meet business and technical needs.
• Continuous Improvement & Best Practice
• Drive standardisation, strengthen change and release governance, and promote adoption of best practices across all environments and release processes.

Who you are:

Our empowered workforce

A career with us means you'll be joining a new and vibrant 'for purpose' government-owned renewable energy company that:

• Empowers you to influence how we accelerate Victoria's renewable energy transition and decarbonise our economy.
• Inspires you through meaningful, challenging work in an environment that encourages leadership and an entrepreneurial spirit.
• Supports your growth through career advancement and professional development opportunities.
• Provides hybrid work arrangements, with around 3 days working in Melbourne or Morwell, with flexible work options to meet individual circumstances, providing greater choice and autonomy.

About us

We have an exciting and ambitious road ahead with a focus on:

• Investing in renewable energy and storage projects that accelerate the transition and deliver commercial returns.
• Supporting households to go all electric to reduce their emissions and energy bills.
• Building the renewable energy workforce our energy transition requires.

The organisation is partnering with industry to transform the energy sector, opening the state up for further innovation and investments in renewables. This includes an initial $1 billion towards delivering 4.5 gigawatts of power through renewable energy and storage projects - the equivalent replacement capacity of coal-fired power station Loy Yang A, which is set to close in 2035.

The SEC will also play an important role in helping Victorian households to reduce their energy bills and emissions by offering simple and effective solutions to help them switch to electric.

The energy transformation will create thousands of jobs. The SEC will play a role in attracting and training our future renewable energy workforce.
