Electric Vehicle Council

The electric vehicle revolution will massively reduce carbon pollution, unlock billions of dollars of economic gains, and save thousands of lives a year by reducing noxious pollution. That’s where you come in.

You’re a great organiser, have strong attention to detail and a knack for drawing useful insights out of complex data. You enjoy working collaboratively to create solutions that tackle complex, multi-faceted problems.

The job description below is a guide to what we’re looking for, if you’re unsure whether you meet the criteria and have the drive to contribute anyway, get in touch and let us know why.

ABOUT US

The Electric Vehicle Council is the national body representing the electric vehicle industry in Australia.

Our mission is to accelerate the electrification of transport for a sustainable and prosperous Australia. Our members are companies that build, power, and support electric vehicles.

We are a not-for-profit association based in Sydney, with staff in Melbourne and Brisbane, operating nationally.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The key objectives for this role:

• Undertake analysis of data related to EVs and EV charging and produce actionable and insightful reports based on the analysis. Examples could include projected impacts on the electricity networks of EV uptake, lifecycle comparative CO2 analysis in an Australian context.
• Undertake data-driven review and design work to support and justify policy regulatory and standards reform, where reform is needed to support EV uptake. Examples include building codes, Australian Standards, Service and Installation Rules, electricity tariff structures.
• Develop guidance literature to support the industry to develop best practice standards. Examples include rules around the sale of electricity for EV charging, determination of maximum demand in electrical installations, compliance requirements for importers to meet with respect to EV charging equipment, intersections/overlaps of federal and state policies and regulations.
• Support and manage ongoing programs that the EVC is responsible for delivering.

OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE WILL HAVE

• A strong understanding of the electrical industry, including technical skills, experience with standards and regulations.
• Strong data analysis skills.
• Ability to translate data analysis work into clear communication pieces for a non-technical audience.
• The ability to learn quickly.
• The drive and self-management required to work in a small, resourceful, and fast-moving team.
• A strong interest in the Council’s mission to accelerate the shift to sustainable transport

If some of these criteria speak to you, we’d love to receive your application. Formal education and experience is less important to us than drive and talent.

WORKING TOGETHER

Salary range: $80,000-$90,000 per annum (pro-rata) + superannuation, negotiable based on experience and qualifications.

Based in either Brunswick in Melbourne, or the CBD in Sydney, but willing to consider candidates from anywhere in Australia.

This role may suit candidates seeking full-time or part-time work. We are keen to provide flexible working arrangements, especially for those with caring responsibilities.

Working from home is an option we all use, but ideally, we would spend some time together in the office as you settle in.

We believe that the Council will be stronger for having a diversity of backgrounds and experience. We encourage applicants from a diversity of genders, cultures, abilities and experiences to apply.
