About the role

We’re seeking an experienced Health, Safety & Environment Advisor to join Alinta Energy’s project team supporting the Reeves Plains Energy Hub, a large‑scale renewable and battery storage development north of Adelaide.

• Act as the primary HSE advisor to the project, providing practical advice that supports both project delivery and Zero Harm objectives
• Translate corporate HSE policies, procedures and standards into clear, implementable site‑level processes and documentation
• Conduct and oversee HSE audits, inspections and risk assessments, ensuring compliance with legislative and project requirements
• Build strong working relationships with site teams, subcontractors and leadership, influencing safe behaviours and standards
• Lead and support incident and near‑miss investigations, identifying root causes and driving corrective actions
• Deliver and support HSE training, coaching and safety conversations to lift capability across the project

Your experience

• Degree or diploma in Occupational Health & Safety (or equivalent practical experience)
• 5+ years’ experience in HSE roles within construction, infrastructure, renewables or operational plant environments
• Demonstrated leadership experience within an HSE or site‑based role, influencing teams and driving accountability
