Alinta Energy

The job in itself is good. The business is money hungry and will turn on even the best workers.
A typical day is being consistently monitored to make sure nobody is going off code to have a breather between calls and there is no overtime, it's all time in lieu which you are not allowed to use unless it's pre-booked and approved. You can not use any more than 2 hours if it at a time. Your scheduled finish time is not your real finish time, you can finish much later than scheduled and you cannot leave until all calls are taken. 
I learned to not trust anybody.
The culture is hypocritical and two faced and you need to watch your back.
The hardest part of the job is the micromanagement. 
The most enjoyable part of the job  is talking with and helping the customers.

Operate and maintain effectively and safely over a 14 day period.
Maintain Mincom Ellipse maintenance and scheduling, creating of work orders, purchase requests and planning of maintenance outages. Conditioning and monitoring of turbine, generator, electric motors and pumps about the site, regular sampling of oil, gas and water systems. Issuing of permits to co workers and contractors, isolation of plant equipment which requires to be worked on, checking of safe work method statements. Reporting daily to plant manager and or senior engineers. Supervise and sign off on all gas work carried out on the plant. Receipt and despatch of all parts including documentation on and off site.

This was the best job I have ever had. Very safety focused. Alinta provided heaps of training hence they had some of the best skilled tradespeople in the country. Career advancement was possible but due to the loyalty of long term employees positions rarely became available. Mine management were understanding and kept everybody well informed. Culture was overall very good however a few of the long term employees didn't know how good they had it and tried to drag everybody into their misery. Shame the mine closed down Leigh Creek was the best little tight knit community in Australia with more facilities than a big regional centre.

My job was very enjoyable for a few reasons, my co- workers we very pleasant, kind and helpful. If I ever needed a questioned answered from management on anything in particular, I always got a quick answer back with a smile.

I learned how to time manage more effectively while doing this job and prioritise the daily scheduled job lists with attention to hazards in the work place.

Alinta has a safety first policy which I loved and worked hard to achieve this mindset thought most of my work days.

The hardest part of my job was the long pants and shirts that were required to stay on throughout the summer months when it was over 40 degree heat days.

Alinta Energy is a great company to work for. In WA our teams work together to provide our customers with great customer service. Staff are not treated like a number, they are acknowledged and awarded for their hard work.
Alinta Energy has great values, with safety coming first. They also care about your mental health as well as physical, and management in WA are organised and always taking in feedback to improve our services.
I recommend working in the Perth office.

I enjoyed my time working with Alinta Energy but I didn't want to leave. Mine manager and production manager also All supervisors were so great to get along with so easy and available to ask/answer all questions. I hounded and hounded to operate the dump trucks and finally I got the chance of doing my dream job. I enjoyed every minute of it until we all knew that the dream was over. 
(saddest day ever)
I am greatfull for getting the chance to operate and work with all the crews at Leigh Creek and you will all be sadly missed. Hope to have a reunion soon. Cheers All 🤗🤗🤗🤗

Alinta Energy supplies natural gas and electricity to 800,000 homes and businesses throughout Australia. Their power generation and energy infrastructure portfolio includes a number of power stations, transmission lines and natural gas pipelines in Australia and a power station in New Zealand. The Leigh Creek Coal Mine is part of Alinta Energy's Flinders Operations Division and supplies coal exclusively for the Port Augusta power stations. 
However Alinta Energy has recently announced that they will close the Leigh Creek Coal Mine and Augusta Power Station.

The team would meet at a certain location and would be briefed on the location and strategies to improve sales. We were then driven to the location where we would approach potential clients' houses to inform them of offers provided by Alinta energy.
The hardest part of the job was being exposed to the elements. I was very motivated to do this job but after a week long heat wave and my trainer hospitalized during working hours for heat stroke I quickly resigned due to health concerns.

A typical day at work would start at 9am. Then the team would practice our sales pitch. At 12am the team would have lunch and head out for sales.

I learned hard work, focus on accounts and profits, energy details and structure of the supply and demand of energy.

My co-workers where great and easy going people, very professional.

The harder part of the job was the lack of vision on the overall potential what the company could achieve.

The most enjoyable part of the job were the people.

Absolutely terrible. I went to a job interview with this company, had two people interview me, they advised they would get back to me in a week. Heard utterly nothing after 4 weeks, so naturally assumed I "obviously didn't get the job". See it relisted on this website 4 weeks later. No phone call, not even an email to say "You were not what we wanted, good bye." Utterly unprofessional. Would not do business with this company even as a (oh my god) customer.
