They are based at our sites throughout regional Tasmania, in the Derwent, North West, West Coast and Trevallyn areas and at our workshop in Cambridge near Hobart.
Scientist
Environmental scientists ensure that our operations are having as little impact on the natural environment as possible, and our specialist water scientists (also called hydrographers or hydrologists) study the flow of water from rivers, lakes and catchments to ensure we are getting the right water flow through our hydropower schemes while also minimising our environmental impact.
Analyst
Business analysts work with various parts of our business (especially IT) to analyse processes and identify more effective and efficient ways of doing things.
