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.

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.
