We’re seeking a seasoned and strategic leader to join us as Agri-Energy Growth Program Lead. You’ll be based at International Towers Barangaroo, one of Australia’s most sustainable and award-winning workplaces, with the flexibility of 3 days in-office and 2 days working from home.

This program spans greenfield infrastructure investment, feedstock innovation, commercial agreements, and policy advocacy. You’ll lead and coordinate cross-functional workstreams, oversee investment planning through to construction and commissioning, and represent GrainCorp in high-level engagements with industry, government, and partners. This is a rare opportunity to shape a national agenda at the intersection of agriculture, energy, and sustainability—while reporting directly to senior leadership and influencing decision-making at the highest level.
