About the Role

The Operational Compliance Manager leads the first-line quality and compliance function across Customer Success. This role ensures regulatory obligations are translated into practical frontline processes, customer interactions, quality assurance activities and operational controls.

This is an operational leadership role, not an independent audit or second-line assurance position. You will work alongside Customer Success leaders to embed compliance into day-to-day decision-making, test whether controls are operating effectively and address the root causes of compliance and quality issues.

Using quality assurance results, compliance monitoring and operational data, you will identify emerging risks, improve processes and support fair, consistent and customer-centred outcomes. You will also lead and develop a team of quality and compliance professionals, strengthening capability, accountability and continuous improvement.

Customer Success is Aurora Energy's largest business unit, supporting customers across billing, collections, hardship, metering and customer service operations. This role plays a critical part in ensuring compliance, quality and customer outcomes remain embedded across these frontline functions.

This is an opportunity to shape and mature a contemporary operational compliance function while contributing to Aurora Energy’s purpose of making energy easy for Tasmanians.

Your background may be in customer operations, customer service leadership, contact centres, quality assurance, first-line risk, operational compliance, financial services, utilities or a similarly regulated service environment.

You have practical experience translating regulatory obligations into workable processes and controls. You understand how quality assurance, compliance monitoring and operational data can be used to identify risk, address root causes and improve customer outcomes.

You are confident influencing stakeholders at all levels, building strong relationships across operational and governance teams and translating complex regulatory requirements into practical business solutions.

You are also a capable people leader who can build expertise, set clear expectations and create accountability. You work effectively with operational leaders and governance specialists, balancing compliance, customer experience and operational performance.

You will be required to satisfy a National Criminal History Police Check.
