There are plenty of great perks, from flexible working to a long list of exclusive Alinta benefits.

What you’ll put into it

  • Coordinate and oversee all aspects of the statutory approvals workstream for the Spinifex Offshore Wind Farm Project.
  • Participate in engagements with Traditional Owner groups to address Native Title and Cultural Heritage matters in the context of development projects.
  • Assist in negotiations with landowners, customers (including utilities), state government departments, and other stakeholders to secure access and tenure rights essential for project support.
  • Contribute to discussions with State and Federal departments as required for the preparation, assessment and grant of approvals, permits and licenses.
  • Coordinate baseline assessments with consultants, review their reports, and provide guidance on best environmental management practices.

What you’ll bring to it

  • A tertiary qualification in a relevant discipline (for example Planning, Environmental Science, Engineering, Construction, Sustainability)
  • Experience working on Environmental Impact Assessments in the Commonwealth and Victorian jurisdictions.
  • Proven record of implementing and managing large scale environmental baseline studies.
  • Extensive experience in a similar role or roles in renewable, civil construction, oil and gas or energy projects.
  • Stakeholder engagement experience to support regulatory approvals across a utility scaled renewables project.

Join us in shaping the future of our renewable landscape and be at the forefront of offshore wind development in Australia
