Drive Commercial Success Across Australia's Renewable Energy Market

Australia's renewable energy market continues to present significant opportunities across wind energy and battery energy storage systems (BESS). As Envision Energy expands its project pipeline, we are seeking a Senior Commercial Advisor to strengthen our Australian commercial capability and support the successful negotiation and execution of major renewable energy projects.

Based in Melbourne, this is a key role working closely with the Head of Commercial Australia, Commercial Managers and the Sales team to structure, negotiate and execute complex commercial transactions across wind and BESS projects.

You will work across local and international teams, including Envision's global headquarters, bringing together commercial, technical and project delivery expertise to secure competitive deals while effectively managing risk.

This is an opportunity for a commercially astute professional with strong technical knowledge of the energy industry, proven contract negotiation experience and a hands-on approach to project ownership.

Your experience delivering projects with other original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) or developers will help strengthen Envision's execution capability and support our continued growth in Australia.

The Opportunity

You will play a pivotal role in translating commercial opportunities into executable projects.

Working across the full deal lifecycle, you will assist Commercial Managers in negotiations, manage contractual and project risks, and ensure agreements reflect both market requirements and

Envision's delivery capabilities.

With a solid understanding of the Australian electricity market, regulatory environment and customary risk allocation principles, you will help position Envision to capitalise on its growing pipeline of wind and BESS opportunities.

Key Responsibilities

- Assist with commercial negotiations and contract drafting for wind turbine generator (WTG) and BESS supply and installation agreements, Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contracts, and Long-Term Service Agreements (LTSAs).

- Review tender terms and assist with the negotiation of Heads of Agreement and other preliminary commercial arrangements.
- Identify, assess and manage commercial, contractual and project risks, ensuring key issues are evaluated and escalated appropriately.
- Work closely with technical, engineering, project delivery, finance and other internal stakeholders to ensure pricing, risk allocation and negotiated terms are understood and approved by relevant subject matter experts.
- Assist with the coordination of deal teams and manage internal stakeholder interfaces, including engagement with Envision's global headquarters.
- Ensure alignment between negotiated contractual commitments and operational delivery capabilities, minimising surprises and supporting successful project execution.
- Assist with contract management and contribute to project management processes throughout the project lifecycle.
- Assist with commercial analysis to support sound decision-making and protect project outcomes.
- Provide commercial updates and reporting to Envision Energy management as required.
- Apply lessons learned from previous project execution with other OEMs or developers to strengthen Envision's commercial and operational capability in Australia.

What You'll Bring

- A degree or relevant qualification in commercial management, engineering, law, business or a related discipline.
- A minimum of 2 years' relevant professional experience, including experience in contract negotiation and drafting for large infrastructure projects.
- Mandatory experience in the electricity development industry, ideally involving wind energy, battery energy storage systems (BESS) or other renewable energy projects.
- Experience negotiating and drafting complex commercial agreements, including EPC contracts, WTG and BESS supply and installation agreements, and/or Long-Term Service Agreements (LTSAs).
- A solid understanding of the Australian electricity market, regulatory workplace and customary commercial risk allocation principles.




- Knowledge of people and project management methods and techniques, with sound commercial management capability.
- Proven project management skills and an understanding of project delivery processes, contractual obligations and operational risk.
- Strong commercial acumen, including experience in cost analysis, pricing, risk assessment and cost control.
- Stakeholder management and negotiation skills, with the ability to influence outcomes across multidisciplinary teams and international interfaces.
- Written and verbal English communication skills are essential. Mandarin language skills would be highly regarded.
- A strong sense of ownership, accountability and commitment to delivering commercially sound and operationally achievable outcomes.
- The ability to identify critical commercial issues, exercise sound judgement and escalate risks appropriately.
