Environmental Reporting and Assurance Analyst

As one of Australia’s largest water businesses, with a geographically dispersed and diverse asset base, our operations extend from the New South Wales border to the base of the Toowoomba ranges and north to Gympie.

As we enter an exciting period of expansion, we are embracing new technologies and sustainable practices to meet the growing needs of our region. We work collaboratively across our organisation and with our stakeholders to improve the services we provide and support resilient, sustainable water management.

About your opportunity

Reporting to the Principal Environment Systems, Improvement and Assurance, the Environmental Reporting and Assurance Analyst is a newly established role within Seqwater’s Environment team. The role will support and develop consistent reporting and assurance across Seqwater’s new operating model.

The role will lead the coordination, analysis and continual improvement of Seqwater’s greenhouse gas reporting across Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3. You will develop the methodologies, data processes, controls, workpapers and evidence needed to produce accurate, repeatable and assurance-ready reporting.

While greenhouse gas reporting will be the immediate priority, the role has a broader remit across environmental and sustainability reporting. This may include reporting and data management for ongoing environmental datasets e.g. vegetation and biodiversity offsets, approvals, waste and resource recovery, energy and resource use, rehabilitation and other potential environmental performance measures.

You will work across the Integrated Planning and Performance (IPP), Capital Design and Delivery (CDD), and Operations and Maintenance (O&M) portfolios, as well as Environment, Finance, Procurement and Digital, to turn complex environmental data into reliable information for regulatory reporting, management oversight and corporate decision-making.

Key responsibilities

• Coordinate Scope 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas reporting across Seqwater’s Source, Store, Treat and Supply value chain.
• Maintain accurate emissions data, calculations, methodologies and supporting records.
• Improve Scope 3 data collection and quality, working with internal teams, suppliers and data owners.
• Support NGER, climate, sustainability and other environmental reporting obligations.
• Coordinate reporting on environmental performance, biodiversity, vegetation, offsets and regulatory commitments.
• Maintain environmental data controls and audit-ready records, and undertake assurance activities as required.
• Develop analysis, forecasts, dashboards and performance reporting using Excel, Power BI and other reporting tools.
• Improve and automate environmental data, reporting and assurance processes to support continual improvement across Seqwater.

About you

You are an analytical and practical environmental or sustainability professional who understands that credible reporting depends on sound methodologies, reliable data, clear ownership and evidence that can withstand scrutiny. You are comfortable working with detailed datasets and can also explain the implications clearly to non-technical stakeholders.

To be successful in this role, you will possess:

• A relevant tertiary qualification in environmental science, sustainability, engineering, data analytics, environmental accounting, economics or a related discipline.
• Experience in GHG, environmental, sustainability, carbon or ESG reporting.
• Practical knowledge of Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG inventories, with exposure to Scope 3 desirable.
• Strong Excel, analytical and data management skills, including working with data from multiple systems and business areas.
• Experience investigating data quality issues and developing robust calculations, methodologies, controls, verification and supporting documentation.
• Experience supporting audit, regulatory reporting or assurance processes.
• Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to work effectively across operational, project and corporate teams.
• Ability to manage competing deadlines and identify and implement improvements to reporting processes.

Highly regarded experience

• NGER, Australian greenhouse gas accounting methodologies and emissions assurance.
• Scope 3 emissions accounting, supplier data collection and estimation methodologies.
• AASB S2, IFRS S2, TCFD or climate-related financial disclosure.
• Environmental offsets, vegetation or biodiversity reporting, including Queensland and EPBC Act requirements.
• ISO 14001 environmental management systems, environmental assurance or compliance reporting.
• Power BI, databases, automated reporting tools or environmental information systems.
• Water, utilities, infrastructure or other asset-intensive and geographically dispersed operating environments.
• Experience in development of business processes and implementation across a range of portfolios.

This newly established role offers the opportunity to shape Seqwater’s environmental and sustainability reporting capability and become a key internal specialist in environmental data, reporting and assurance.

• Lead the continued development of Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions reporting.
• Build practical, enterprise-wide environmental data governance and reporting controls.
• Work across the Source, Store, Treat and Supply value chain and the IPP, CDD and O&M portfolios.
• Broaden environmental reporting across offsets, approvals, environmental performance and emerging sustainability requirements.
• Translate complex environmental information into insights that support better decisions and credible assurance.

This position will be offered on a fixed term contract until March 2028 with an attractive salary plus 12.75% superannuation.
