About the opportunity
Join a leading Australian energy business in a newly created role at the centre of how the organisation plans and makes decisions. You’ll own medium-term and integrated planning across Australian and New Zealand operations as well as trading and shipping, turning complex data into clear insights that senior leaders can act on.
This is a rare chance to build a new function from the ground up. Within 18-24 months, the team is expected to evolve into a Centre of Excellence, and you’ll shape what it looks like, what analytics it owns, and what stays with the business.
