It facilitates rule changes, carries out reviews and provides the nation's Energy Ministers with advice on the design of regulatory and energy market arrangements.

The AEMC attracts exceptionally talented and purpose-driven professionals committed to delivering the best outcomes for consumers as a new energy future evolves.

People are the key to the success of the AEMC's strategy, and the organisation continues to invest in their capability and wellbeing.

About the Opportunity

Reporting to the Executive General Manager, Networks & Technical, the Head of Technical provides expert technical advice to the Commission, Chief Executive and project teams on current and emerging trends and issues as they relate to power systems engineering and their impact on the transitioning energy market.
