Location: Australia

A globally recognised is scaling rapidly across Australia.

With a portfolio of high-energy-demand assets and a sophisticated approach to power procurement, the business is executing a long-term strategy centred on renewable energy, grid optimisation, and large-scale infrastructure development. Backed by significant capital and technical capability, it is entering a new phase of growth.

This role offers a rare opportunity to join a lean, high-calibre in-house legal function where legal is embedded directly into commercial decision-making.

Senior Legal Counsel – Renewables 
  • Structuring and negotiating complex Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) and long-term energy offtake arrangements
  • Energy trading and wholesale market participation agreements
  • Grid connection, transmission, and large-load access arrangements
  • Strategic infrastructure and project development agreements
  • Regulatory and market-facing matters across greenfield development. 
This is a highly commercial, front-line role. You will work closely with senior stakeholders across energy markets, finance, operations, and executive leadership—helping shape how the business sources, manages, and optimises power at scale.
