Shape the future of renewable energy through Quality Leadership

• Own and drive project-wide quality excellence.
• 100+ years of powering Tasmania with clean energy.
• Relocation support to help you settle into Tasmania.

Salary range from $140,000 + superannuation + allowances.

Take ownership of quality excellence across one of Australia’s largest energy refurbishment projects. We are seeking a proven Quality Manager who has successfully built and embedded quality management systems in complex, large-scale energy projects — particularly where the principal contractor or client had no/limited established processes in place.

Why this role matters

For more than 100 years, Tasmania has been powered by hydroelectric energy. As we enter a new era of investment, the West Coast Scheme Refurbishment Program will overhaul four of the state’s largest generating units (~100 MW each). This multi-year, multi-site initiative will modernise turbines, upgrade controls, and deliver lasting reliability and efficiency for the state’s energy future.

Your leadership in quality will ensure that we don’t just deliver assets — we deliver world-class outcomes.

About the Role

Pioneering Quality in Complex Projects

Drawing on profiles such as Quality System, Audit & Improvements Management and Documentation Leadership, this role is about creating, not inheriting, systems.

- Develop and embed a comprehensive, project-wide quality framework from the ground up.
- Lead quality planning and assurance across design, manufacturing, fabrication, installation, and commissioning.
- Establish inspection/test strategies and oversee third-party QA/QC teams.
- Ensure compliance with Australian and international standards including ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001.
- Build document management and reporting systems that set new standards for transparency and accountability.
- Identify risks early and implement proactive quality mitigation strategies.
- Coordinate inspections, audits, and sign-offs with contractors, regulators, and stakeholders.
- Create lasting frameworks for future projects through continuous improvement.
