Mission
Neoen Australia
Neoen Australia is the leading renewable energy developer in Australia and has been contributing to Australia’s energy transition for over a decade. Neoen Australia currently has over 4GW of renewable assets in operation or under construction and has invested more than $7 billion in the Australian market. Neoen Australia is uniquely positioned with our capability to develop, construct and operate our renewable energy assets. Neoen Australia is one of the few renewable energy developers to monitor its generating projects through a 24/7 Operations Control Centre (OCC) based in Canberra. Among other things, the OCC gathers data to improve the long-term maintenance of Neoen's generators, hence improving their availability and sustainability. We have built trusted partnerships with government, industry, and local communities, and we are widely recognised for our innovation and delivery track record. The company is a signatory to the Clean Energy Council’s Best Practice Charter and currently contributes over $500,000 in annual community benefit-sharing. Neoen Australia is an active member of the communities we operate in, we understand the needs of the various stakeholders and invest time and resources to meet and exceed their expectations. This has resulted in unparalleled community support, which is a key factor in being able to develop and manage projects on time and within budget.
Neoen Australia has a highly experienced team of renewable energy professionals across offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth, and we are looking for an experienced project manager who is committed to the energy transition and our company values.

Coordinate multidisciplinary inputs (engineering, planning, environmental, grid) to support project design optimisation and responsible development outcomes.
Monitor environmental approval conditions and regulatory obligations and ensure ongoing compliance throughout project lifecycle.
Provide regular reporting on project progress, risks and environmental considerations to internal and external stakeholders.
Lead regular project meetings and provide reporting on project status and milestones.
Conduct regular site inspections.
Monitor market conditions affecting project economics and timeline, and develop and maintain project financial assumptions.
