Be part of a tight-knit team with strong tenure and culture

Alinta Energy is one of Australia’s biggest energy retailers, generators and developers with over 1.1 million customers.

Ready to make a real impact?

This is a hands-on leadership role at our Braemar Power Station where you’ll play a key part in keeping the plant running safely, reliably and efficiently.

You’ll also be part of the site’s on-call rotation, supporting operational responses when needed.

If you enjoy being close to operations, coaching a team and making a tangible impact on plant performance, this is a great opportunity to step into a well-established site with the scope to uplift how work is planned and executed.

What you'll do

Lead and support a team of Operations & Maintenance Technicians, providing day-to-day supervision and coaching

Plan and coordinate weekly maintenance activities and smaller outages to optimise plant performance

Champion a strong safety culture, ensuring compliance with all HSE requirements and responding to incidents as needed
