Graduate Employment

TRUenergy is committed to providing opportunities for selected tertiary students from a range of disciplines a head start in their career. By seeking graduates with relevant qualifications and abilities, we can provide a diverse and dynamic environment to help develop both your future and our business.

Corporate Head Office

We are currently reviewing our requirements for graduate opportunities in 2009. We have run very successful company wide programs in the past which have provided outstanding career opportunities for graduates in commerce, accounting, engineering, mathematics/statistics, IT and business (including HR and marketing). Whilst opportunities may not be available in every discipline, we will continue to provide entry-level opportunities to graduates to kick-start their career in real roles with real responsibilities.

Keep an eye on our Current Vacancies page and SEEK for specific job vacancy details. You are welcome to apply for all opportunities that you feel qualified to apply for. However, the Company does not hold any speculative applications and would, therefore, be grateful if you would only submit applications in response to advertised roles, clearly stating the role title in the subject heading of your email.

Operations

Each year at our generation/storage sites we source and select students who have a genuine desire to work within the Energy sector to participate in our Student Vacation and Undergraduate programs.

To gain the maximum benefit from these programs, you will thrive in a team environment and be able to apply your studies in a practical way. We design real ‘hands on’ work assignments for each student and assign a mentor to ensure that you learn in a supportive environment.

If you are excited by the challenge of working in an environment where you will be expected to make things happen from day one then TRUenergy could be the place for you.
