Full Job Description

Shape business strategy through predictive modelling and data-driven insights
Partner with senior stakeholders to solve complex commercial challenges
Enjoy flexible hybrid working, energy discounts and career growth opportunities

Alinta Energy is one of Australia’s biggest energy retailers, generators and developers with over 1.1 million customers. Australia’s energy system is undergoing the biggest transformation in its history and we’re right there with it. We’re investing in and developing large-scale renewables and storage projects as part of our ongoing effort to provide our customers with reliable, affordable and sustainable energy.

We understand that flexibility matters when considering your next role. Let us know your requirements, and we’ll carefully consider how we might accommodate them.

Ready to make a real impact?

Join our Technology team and help turn complex data into meaningful business outcomes. Working across customer, marketing, pricing and commercial functions, you'll develop predictive models, uncover insights and influence strategic decisions that improve customer value and business performance.

Why you’ll love working here

At Alinta Energy, we’re taking real action to deliver reliable and sustainable energy for Australia — and that practical approach runs through everything we do. You’ll get clear direction, genuine flexibility, and the support you need to grow, all while working on projects that make a lasting difference. We’re big enough to create impact, but small enough that your ideas and effort will always be seen.

There are plenty of other great benefits of working for Alinta Energy, including flexible working, energy discounts, an Employee Assistance Program (EAP), a paid volunteer day each year, fully stocked kitchens, and lots more.

What you’ll do

Developing predictive models that support customer, marketing and commercial strategies
Interpreting complex datasets to identify opportunities and drive business outcomes
Partnering with stakeholders to understand challenges and translate them into analytical solutions
Presenting insights, recommendations and modelling outcomes to technical and non-technical audiences
Influencing decision-making through evidence-based analysis and strategic thinking.

Your experience

Tertiary qualifications in statistics, mathematics, computer science, data science or a related discipline
Demonstrated experience building and deploying predictive or statistical models in a commercial environment
Strong capability in SQL, Python or R, with experience working across large and complex datasets
Exceptional communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to influence outcomes
Experience translating data into actionable business insights and managing competing priorities

Please note this role requires full working rights within Australia.

This role is well suited to a commercially minded Data Scientist who enjoys balancing technical analysis with stakeholder engagement. You'll thrive if you're curious, collaborative and motivated by using data to solve real business problems. The role centres on understanding the business, influencing strategy and delivering commercially valuable modelling outcomes rather than purely technical model development.

Like what you’re seeing?

If you like the sound of this, and you’ve got experience in a similar role, we’d love to talk to you. Come and discover better together with Alinta Energy.

We are a 2026 Circle Back Initiative Employer – we commit to respond to every applicant.

If your application progresses, we will need to complete background and pre-employment checks, such as immigration checks, reference checks, criminal background checks, qualification checks, and additional checks for roles related to finance.

Our Diversity Commitment

Alinta Energy offers a truly diverse, safe and supportive work environment. As an equal opportunity employer, Alinta Energy encourages applications from any qualified person, including First Nations Australians, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, people of all ages and people living with a disability. We are also proud to be a WORK180 Endorsed Employer and we are committed to advancing women’s careers.

We look forward to hearing from you.
