Alinta Energy is one of Australia’s biggest energy retailers, generators and developers with over 1.1 million customers. Australia’s energy system is undergoing the biggest transformation in its history and we’re right there with it. We’re investing in and developing large-scale renewables and storage projects as part of our ongoing effort to provide our customers with reliable, affordable and sustainable energy.

About the role

We're recruiting a Construction Supervisor to support the delivery of the Reeves Plains Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Project, a key project within Alinta Energy's growing renewable energy portfolio.

Reporting to the Construction Manager, you'll act as Alinta Energy's primary on-site representative, maintaining a strong field presence and providing day-to-day oversight of construction activities. You'll work closely with contractors and project stakeholders to support safe, compliant and high-quality project delivery while developing your capability across project assurance, reporting and construction management.

Why you’ll love working here

At Alinta Energy, we’re taking real action to deliver reliable and sustainable energy for Australia, and that practical approach runs through everything we do. You’ll get clear direction, genuine flexibility, and the support you need to grow, all while working on projects that make a lasting difference. We’re big enough to create impact, but small enough that your ideas and effort will always be seen.

There are plenty of other great benefits of working for Alinta Energy, including flexible working, energy discounts, an Employee Assistance Program (EAP), a paid volunteer day each year, fully stocked kitchens, and lots more.

What you'll do

  • Oversee day-to-day construction activities and contractor performance.
  • Monitor works to ensure compliance with safety, quality and project requirements.
  • Promote a strong safety culture and proactively manage construction risks and issues.
  • Maintain a consistent field presence, providing construction assurance and site-based oversight across the project.
  • Coordinate with contractors, engineers and key stakeholders to support project delivery.
  • Maintain site records, monitor progress and provide regular reporting to the Construction Manager.

Your experience

  • Experience as a Construction Supervisor, Site Supervisor, Construction Coordinator or similar site-based construction role.
  • Experience delivering construction activities across infrastructure, energy, utilities, mining, industrial or major civil projects.
  • Demonstrated experience managing contractors and maintaining a strong field presence throughout project execution.
  • Understanding of construction quality requirements, inspections, testing, compliance and assurance processes.
  • Strong communication, stakeholder management and safety leadership skills.
  • A proactive approach, willingness to learn and desire to develop within a project delivery environment.

Please note this role requires full working rights within Australia.

Why join Alinta Energy

  • Competitive remuneration package plus bonus opportunity
  • Join a business with a strong pipeline of projects and long-term career opportunities beyond this project
  • Access employee benefits including energy discounts, retailer discounts and discounted health insurance
  • Ongoing learning and development opportunities to support your career growth
  • Paid parental leave, purchased leave and wellbeing support for you and your family
