The Department for Energy and Mining gives employees the opportunity to be part of the global transformation economy. We oversee the responsible mining and production of the minerals, metals and fuels, to safely and sustainably generate the energy and low carbon products of the future.
We are regularly seeking skilled candidates to work across our department in the following areas:
Energy and technical regulation
Oil and gas
Minerals and mining
Modern energy
Corporate activities (administration, communications, finance, human resources and information technology)
The department offers a diverse, inclusive and friendly team environment, where you’ll be working alongside others who are passionate about energy and mining.
The South Australian Public Sector offers flexible working arrangements for employees, including:
schedule of hours worked - for example, flexitime, compressed or expanded work weeks, alternative start and finish times, changed shift and break schedules
number of hours worked - for example, part-time, job sharing, purchased leave, transition to retirement
place of work - for example, working at home, office work and activity-based work (such as field work).
Flexitime enables employees to negotiate start and finish times, within a range of core business hours, without increasing or reducing the total number of hours worked when averaged over a four-week cycle.
The department understands reward and recognition provides a powerful and meaningful way of acknowledging and engaging employees. Employee reward and recognition represents a return on an employee’s effort, dedication and work achievements. We are committed to fostering a culture of appreciation, where our employees feel their contributions are valued. By recognising and rewarding employee behaviour that exemplifies our High-Performing Behaviours Framework, we will facilitate the delivery of the best outcomes for South Australians.
Developing and maintaining a healthy, resilient and engaged workforce is a key part of achieving the department’s vision of becoming 'the best department in Australia'.
When employees are in a state of wellbeing at work, they are able to develop their potential, work productively and creatively, build positive relationships with others, cope with the normal stresses of life and make a meaningful contribution.
Wellbeing initiatives include:
Wellbeing training and webinars
Annual free flu vaccination
Free confidential on and off-site counselling services
