About the Opportunities

The agency is undergoing a period of significant change and growth, with new responsibilities and expanded scope of schemes, such as the Cheaper Home Batteries initiative, Guarantee of Origin scheme and the Nature Repair Market. The agency has also been appointed as the preferred regulator for distributed energy products, also known as consumer energy resources.





With a variety of roles on offer we are searching for candidates who can demonstrate capability in a variety of different areas.

Information about all the schemes we administer, as well as our publications, can be found on our website.

The division works collaboratively across the agency to ensure efficient and effective administration of all schemes.

The Scheme Support Division supports the agency to resolve complex issues, advocate for legislative and policy change, screen and monitor client behaviour, address serious non-compliance and improve operational efficiency and effectiveness.

Consumer energy national technical regulator

The Australian Government, in partnership with state and territory governments, has developed a national framework for regulating consumer energy resources. We are preparing to take on the role of the Consumer Energy Resources National Technical Regulator under the framework, subject to legislation.

The new regulatory framework will give consumers greater confidence in their devices, helping them get more value from their energy systems. The framework sets out roles for us as the Consumer Energy National Technical Regulator,



including registering suppliers, installers and products; collecting information about installed devices; and monitoring compliance.

Current Opportunities

There are current, immediate vacancies available working within the consumer energy national technical regulator as well as further anticipated vacancies as the national framework is developed and implementation commences. The availability of roles will be staggered as the framework matures and subject to the passage of the related legislation.

The merit pool from this process may also be used to fill roles within the Renewable Energy Target scheme and National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting scheme.
