A rare opportunity to shape a state-wide operational network through planning, feasibility and analysis that informs major investment decisions.

Container Exchange (COEX) is the not-for-profit organisation responsible for delivering Queensland's Containers for Change scheme. Since launching in 2018, COEX has played a leading role in reducing container litter, increasing recycling rates and creating positive environmental, social and economic outcomes for communities across the state.

As the scheme continues to evolve, COEX is investing in the next generation of recycling infrastructure and technology to improve network capability and operational performance. This is a unique opportunity to join an organisation committed to innovation, sustainability and delivering long-term environmental outcomes for Queensland.

Reporting to the Operations Planning and Capability Manager, the Operations Planning Lead supports the front-end planning, analysis and feasibility work required to determine whether proposed operational initiatives should progress into delivery. You will help define problems, gather requirements, assess options, test assumptions and prepare planning outputs that support informed investment, prioritisation and project approval decisions.

Working across operational teams, internal functions, network partners and suppliers, you will ensure proposed initiatives are properly scoped, assessed and supported by clear evidence. The role focuses on planning before approved initiatives are handed to Operations Improvement or another delivery owner. Key responsibilities include:

You are an analytical and commercially minded planning, operations, business analysis or project development professional who enjoys bringing structure to ambiguity. You are comfortable working across technical and operational environments, with the ability to gather information, challenge assumptions and turn complex analysis into practical recommendations.
