Job description

Australia's energy transition needs infrastructure it can trust, and Source's client, PLUS ES, has built its reputation on exactly that. PLUS ES is a leading provider of metering and data services, operating at the intersection of technology, service and sustainability to power the energy and resource transition across the country. From resource retailers and networks to end consumers, PLUS ES delivers smarter infrastructure solutions backed by a relentless commitment to reliable, accurate measurement, data and insight, the foundations a sustainable energy future is built on.

PLUS ES is in an exciting period of transformation, guided by its purpose of creating a smarter sustainable future and its mission to deliver exceptional outcomes through digital infrastructure, insights and innovation, building toward its vision of a connected world built on intelligent infrastructure.

Every day, the team lives its values: staying safe, knowing no one goes it alone, being partners who listen first and deliver with care, staying curious, and choosing to own it.

It's a business that's looking for people who want to help shape what comes next in the space, not just watch it happen.

About PLUS ES

PLUS ES is entering an exciting new chapter. As it continues its journey as a leader in metering and data services, it is building smarter infrastructure solutions at the intersection of technology, service and sustainability, powering the energy and resource transition across Australia. This is an opportunity to help shape what PLUS ES becomes next, with a commitment to delivering the reliable, accurate data and insights a sustainable energy future depends on.

PLUS ES’s mission is to deliver smarter infrastructure and data to enable a sustainable tomorrow, and its vision is to keep innovating today for tomorrow’s energy challenges. Its values are Safety, Team, Customer, Innovation and Accountability.

About the Role

Develop forecasts for meter installation volumes and cost per meter, and keep a close eye on performance against plan.

Dig into key operational and financial variances, turning what you find into clear insights and recommended actions.

Produce accurate executive-level reporting, reconciliations and dashboards for deployment performance.

Keep tabs on key indicators including service order volumes, cancellation and abort rates, run rate, and regional performance.

Support business and retailer partners in meeting Legacy Meter Replacement Program obligations, including volume and progress analysis.

Team up with the Power BI team to automate reporting, sharpen data visualisation and make analysis faster and easier.

Get to the bottom of missing meter and inventory discrepancies across installation, commissioning, stocktake and logistics data.

Give timely feedback and practical recommendations to management, retailers, vendors and Field Service Providers.

About You

You're just as happy interrogating a spreadsheet as you are explaining a trend to a senior stakeholder in plain English. You bring demonstrated experience in data analysis, forecasting, performance reporting and reconciliation in an operational or infrastructure environment, along with advanced Microsoft Excel skills.

What makes you stand out is your knack for turning complex datasets into practical recommendations: spotting trends and root causes, then explaining them clearly to both executives and people on the ground. You bring solid commercial and financial acumen, real attention to detail, and a proactive, self-directed working style that doesn't need much hand-holding, even when priorities shift.

Experience in electricity metering, utilities, field services or large-scale infrastructure deployment would be a real plus, as would some exposure to Power BI, SAP, Salesforce,

or a tertiary qualification in Business, Commerce, Finance, Data Analytics or Engineering. That said, your curiosity and analytical instincts matter more than any box-ticking.

Why Apply?

This is your chance to bring real clarity and rigour to a program that matters to Australia's energy transition, with genuine scope to shape how deployment performance is measured and improved, in a team guided by creating a smarter sustainable future and values of Safety, Team, Customer, Innovation and Accountability that it lives by every day.

Please note: The successful candidate will be required to satisfactorily complete a criminal history check as part of the pre-employment screening process.
