The Next Economy works with communities, governments and industries to shape practical, place-based solutions for a just and sustainable future. We’re focused on managing the shift to net zero in ways that protect people, livelihoods and the environment – especially in regional areas key to Australia’s success.

We’re hiring an Operations Manager to strengthen the systems that make this work possible. You’ll lead the development of internal policies, digital tools and processes that support a high-performing, values-aligned team.

This role is central to delivering our 2030 Strategy. You’ll work closely with leadership and program teams to ensure our internal operations run smoothly, enabling us to collaborate more effectively with our partners and communities.

If you’re systems-savvy, solutions-focused and motivated by meaningful work, we’d love to hear from you. This is a chance to build something that truly matters – behind the scenes, but at the core of change.
