Job Description
Senior Procurement Specialist
Renewable Energy Developer and Asset Owner
Permanent, Full Time
Melbourne, VIC
About the Organisation
A rapidly expanding Australian renewable energy developer and asset owner, backed by significant institutional capital following recent strategic acquisitions. With a substantial portfolio of utility-scale solar, wind, and battery storage development assets across the country, they are building out an elite, agile team to drive their projects from development through to commercial operation.
The Opportunity
To support their expanding pipeline, they are seeking an experienced Procurement Leader to establish and formalise the business's centralised procurement function. Working closely with the in-house legal team, this role will take ownership of setting up robust frameworks to streamline the bidding, tendering, and proposals processes across the entire project portfolio.
As a key commercial driver, you will lead high-value contract negotiations and manage strategic relationships with tier-one EPC contractors, major OEMs, and Balance of Plant (BoP) partners to progress projects seamlessly through to Final Investment Decision (FID) and construction.
Ideal Candidate
By joining the business at this early stage, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the procurement function from the ground up and share directly in the success of their impact on the Australian renewables sector.
