Every project Aurecon delivers leaves a legacy. Every project has sustainability embedded in decision making. And every project is at the leading-edge of technical eminence.

But it really comes down to one, crucial question: what kind of world do you want to create for the next generation? This is most relevant in the Hunter Region which is poised for significant change and investment in the years ahead. Truth is, the decisions being made right now will determine the future of everything – from the local community to the entire planet. One of those decisions is: who do you decide to work for?

How will your ideas contribute to shaping what’s next?

The Hunter Region in NSW is undergoing a significant period of diversification and change associated with decarbonisation and energy transition. The region has had a long history with heavy industry including coal mining, power generation and manufacturing. There is a strong push from government and global forces to move to a decarbonised economy. The Hunter is well positioned to capitalise on this by leveraging existing physical assets and human resource assets. The result is many significant opportunities. This role is for an Energy Technical Director that will be the local lead for Aurecon for the energy transition in the Hunter region.

How will your future be shaped by us?

Joining Aurecon means you’ll be at the award-winning edge of innovation and sustainability. AFR ranked us Top 5 among sustainability leaders and Top 3 of all innovative companies in professional services. One Consult awarded us an innovative design award. Plus, we were Consult Australia’s large firm of the year.

You really can bring your whole self to work and be confident your voice will be heard. We don’t just claim we’re inclusive and innovative, as proven by the independent awards and accreditations we’ve gained. We’ve been recognised for our innovation culture, gender equality and our LGBTI+ inclusion. Plus, we have a robust Reconciliation Action Plan – our fourth edition since 2014.

On a personal level you’ll have access to flexible work hours, remote work, working holidays, part-time and job share options. You’ll also have a learning programme 100% personalised to you and the option to build your technical mastery in the Aurecon Design Academy which earns you a Graduate Certificate in Design Management from the prestigious RMIT University.

• Newcastle Light Rail and the Newcastle Interchange? That was us
• Newcastle University NUspace? That was us.
• The Newcastle Inner City Bypass? That was us too.
• And the Western Sydney Airport? You guessed it, us.

More recently we have been at the forefront of delivering major energy projects across the state as part of the roadmap to decarbonisation. Some of these include:

• HumeLink – a 350 km long, 500 kV transmission line. We provided Technical Advisor and Environmental Approval services during the project development phase and are currently involved in the detailed design as part of the delivery phase.

About this Role
At whiteGREY we believe that extraordinary brands, marketing communications and experiences are created from identifying and resolving the right kind of tension.

• Author creative briefs, ensuring high-quality and on-brief ideas
