Job description

What if your next big challengewasn'tjust aboutreportingonSustainability- butactuallybuildingprograms tomakea difference?

As Head of Sustainability,you'll shape how Strait Link responds to one ofourbiggest challenges, while working at the intersection of strategy, reporting, risk,operationsand transformation.

Reporting to the Chief Transformation Officer, you'll work across the business to understand our climate-related risks and opportunities(CRROs), strengthen our reporting and governance, identify ways to reduce our environmental impactand operate more efficiently,and turn those opportunities into practical initiatives.

You'll influence senior leaders well beyond sustainability - from investment and infrastructure to operations,riskand long-term business planning.

You'll bring together commercial thinking, analysis,reportingand program delivery to helpStraitLinkmakebetter decisions today andplanforwhat'sahead.

And because weoperateships, move freight and manage significant assets-with over 1000 employees-youwon'tbe dealing in theory. The decisions you help shape will have a very real impact.

Key Responsibilities

LeadStraitLink's mandatory climatereporting-and turn it intoa strategic advantage

Drive the decarbonisation program acrossmarine,fleetandinfrastructureassets.

Design and own Strait Link's sustainability strategy

Work withgovernment,partnersand customers tosupport sustainability initiatives.

Prepare reports and recommendations for Executive and Board stakeholders

What Will Help You Succeed

You are a strategic sustainability professional with strong reporting,governance,and program delivery experience. You can translate regulatory requirements into practical business outcomes and confidently engage with senior leaders, technicalspecialists,and external stakeholders.

You'll bring:

Experience leading climate or sustainability reporting through at least one full disclosure cycle (AASB S2, TCFD, ISSB or equivalent).

Demonstrated ability to lead multi-stream sustainability or decarbonisation programs.

Strong understanding of emissions reporting, climategovernance,and sustainability compliance requirements.

Proven stakeholder management experience, including Executive and Board-level reporting.

Experience establishinggovernance frameworks,committees,or cross-functional forums.

Experience in transport, logistics, maritime, infrastructure or another asset-intensive industry will be highly regarded, but is not essential. Exposure to government funding, climate risk or enterprise risk management would also be valuable. Professional qualifications may complement your experience, but what you have delivered will matter most.

This is a chance to shape sustainability in a business where the operational context is real and the work is still being built.

You'll have access to senior decision-makers, work with people who understand our assets in depth and influence how sustainability is considered across investment, infrastructure, risk and long-term planning.

Strait Link is large enough to pursue ambitious programs, but connected enough that you'll see what your work changes.

Different People. Better Ideas.

We believe better decisions are made when different experiences, perspectives and ideas are brought to the table.

We're committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone can contribute and belong. We welcome applications from people of all ages, cultural backgrounds, genders and sexual orientations, as well as people living with disability, neurodivergent people, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples.

Our values are simple: Care. Trust. Connected.

They shape how we work, how we treat one another and how we show up every day.

Thank you for considering a career with Strait Link. We appreciate the interest shown in this opportunity and the time taken to apply. While we review every application carefully, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
