Head of Engineering

Applications Close 20 October 2025

Power Queensland’s Future.
Shape What Comes Next.

Are you ready to take the lead in one of Queensland’s most pivotal energy roles? CS Energy is seeking a Head of Engineering, a strategic, future-focused leader who will set the benchmark for engineering excellence across a diverse portfolio of energy assets.

From traditional generation to emerging renewables – solar, wind, gas, hydro and battery storage, this is your opportunity to drive technical performance, innovation and sustainability for generations to come.

About the Role

As Head of Engineering, you’ll be at the forefront of Queensland’s energy transition. Reporting to the COO, you’ll lead a multidisciplinary team to deliver safe, reliable and cost-effective engineering outcomes. You’ll optimise existing operations while integrating new technologies and renewable assets across the state.

You’ll be responsible for:

  • Driving engineering excellence and high standards across a growing asset portfolio.
  • Ensuring safe, reliable and cost-effective delivery of projects and overhauls.
  • Leading with commercial acumen to balance risk, performance and value.
  • Embedding a culture of innovation, accountability and high performance.
  • Building engineering capability to meet the challenges of a rapidly evolving energy landscape.
  • Collaborating across sites and teams to ensure consistency, clarity and impact.

About You

You’re a seasoned engineering leader with deep experience in power generation and complex asset management. You understand the balance between risk, performance, cost, and reliability and you’ve got the strategic mindset to lead change, not just manage it.

Known for setting high standards and inspiring those around you, you excel at turning technical complexity into clear, actionable strategies.

You understand regulatory frameworks and the commercial realities of modern energy supply, and you know what it takes to future-proof an engineering team in a transforming industry.

Join Us

CS Energy is a Queensland-owned energy company generating and selling electricity to large commercial and industrial customers. We’re committed to delivering safe, secure and sustainable energy now and into the future and we’re looking for leaders who are just as committed.
