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.

We understand that flexibility matters when considering your next role. Let us know your requirements, and we’ll carefully consider how we might accommodate them.

Ready to make a real impact?

As an Account Manager in our Commercial & Industrial team, you'll help business customers find the right energy solutions while building strong relationships and identifying opportunities to grow our customer portfolio. You'll work across the sales lifecycle, from customer outreach and relationship management through to contract renewals and supporting new business opportunities.

This is a great opportunity for someone with experience in a customer-facing sales role within a regulated industry such as energy, telecommunications, banking, insurance or financial services. We're looking for someone who enjoys picking up the phone and building relationships, has a strong attention to detail, and brings a positive attitude and willingness to learn. In return, you'll receive comprehensive training, ongoing support and clear career pathways into more senior sales and account management roles.

This is an initial 16-month max term contract, with the potential for extension subject to business requirements.

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

• Engage with existing and prospective business customers over the phone and through email
• Identify sales opportunities through proactive outreach and lead follow-up
• Support the preparation of proposals, contracts and customer documentation
• Build strong customer relationships and deliver a high standard of service
• Maintain accurate customer records and sales activity within CRM systems
• Work closely with Billing, Credit, Legal and Compliance teams
• Learn the commercial and regulatory aspects of the energy industry from experienced professionals
• Contribute to a positive, collaborative and high-performing team culture
