About the Job:

You’ll lead policy development that directly influences how Australia’s electricity grid evolves to support net zero. From system reliability to regulatory reform, your insights will shape how networks function in a high-renewables future. This is deep, technical, and strategic work, ideal for those with strong energy market experience who want their advice to land where it matters.

What’s in It for You:

Policy That Matters: Work on reforms with direct impact on energy affordability, security, and decarbonisation.

High-Calibre Team: Join a driven, experienced team of policy thinkers, market experts and leaders.

Stretch Your Thinking: Tackle complex, systems-level problems across planning, reliability, and regulation.

Flexibility & Support: Enjoy flexible work arrangements, and a culture that backs balance and growth.

Leadership Pathways: Step into a strategic role with visibility and real leadership development opportunities.

Who You Are:

You bring a deep understanding of energy markets, particularly the National Electricity Markets and how networks, regulation, and investment frameworks interact. You know the risks and opportunities of a fast-moving energy transition, and can turn complex issues into clear, actionable policy. Ideally, you’ve worked with or around market bodies and know how to lead teams that get things done.

Key Duties:

Lead development of strategic policy on electricity network planning and regulation.

Oversee a small team to design and deliver policy reform proposals.

Navigate network regulatory challenges and propose innovative policy responses.

Engage closely with market bodies, state governments, and industry stakeholders.

Prepare high-quality written advice for executive, ministerial and intergovernmental decision-making.
