About the role
This is an ideal career step for a passionate and motivated individual looking to influence public policy in a meaningful organisation. This role offers a platform to influence the public debate on Australia's energy and climate change policies.
You will be joining a great group of people who are intellectually curious, love their work, and are passionate about what they do. We foster a work culture where people are valued and appreciated and have autonomy over their work. We enjoy each other's company and come together often. We enjoy a Monday soup lunch weekly as well as daily catch-ups over coffee or Zoom.
This is a permanent, ongoing position, ideally based in Melbourne. As part of our commitment to flexible working, we will consider a range of options for the successful applicant to fill the role. All options can be discussed at the interview stage.
An attractive and flexible remuneration package will be offered to secure the right person for this role. In addition, we offer employee benefits including salary packaging, a book club, bike storage, fruit, and a well-stocked kitchen.
What we are looking for
You must have a deep understanding of the energy sector and related climate change issues and experience in contributing to policy debates. Beyond this, we are looking for:
a minimum of four years of work experience in industry, consulting, academia, and/or the public sector, ideally with a focus on the energy sector or heavy industry.
experience working on policy and with policy makers
a good grasp of one or more of the following: economics, finance, investment, resources, infrastructure, or tax
excellent communication, analytical and research capabilities, and someone who thrives on complexity
strong people and project management skills
the ability to write and present information well for a broad audience, and
ability to speak confidently and reliably with stakeholders and the media and quickly develop a public profile.
Candidates will be considered for the role of either Senior Associate or Deputy Program Director, depending on their background and experience, and salary will be commensurate with the appointed position.
