Ready to make a real impact?
Join a focused security team where you will lead cyber security awareness initiatives while contributing to control assurance and governance activities.

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.

- Designing and continuously improving the cyber security awareness program and roadmap
- Delivering engaging training content and phishing simulations across the business
- Partnering with change, communications and business teams to embed secure behaviours
