⚡About Amber
Amber is an entirely new way of thinking about buying, banking and selling energy – where home energy technology works to put money back in customers’ pockets and accelerate the renewable energy transition. Everything we build is about making that possible and putting traditional retailers in the shade.
We believe the cheapest, fastest and most rewarding way to reach 100% renewables is to automate the growing wave of home batteries and EVs. Customers get direct access to the real-time wholesale electricity price and the technology to shift energy usage to the times when cheaper renewables are available in the grid and exported to the grid at times when the price they can be paid for it is highest.
We are backed by Australia’s leading VCs (including Square Peg Capital, Main Sequence Ventures, Rubio Impact Ventures, and Breakthrough Victoria), impact-focused investors and individuals, and most recently by Commonwealth Bank, NRMA, Gentrack and ETF Partners (UK/Europe based).
We are growing rapidly and have thousands of customers who love what we are doing and a great product that will play a significant role in driving Australia and the world towards a renewable future.
We’re now at a critical moment in taking the business to real scale as we disrupt a huge market for the better. You’d be a part of a rapidly growing team of over 150, with expertise across energy, technology, marketing, and operations. We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace and a great culture of people who love coming to work to build a better world.
Amber for Batteries unlocks more value for homeowners with batteries, driving down their energy bills and their payback periods. By storing energy when it’s cheap and exporting it to the grid for wholesale feed-in rates of up to $19/kWh, Amber’s software is completely changing the economics of home batteries and accelerating the energy transition.
Amber for EVs is our EV smart charging solution that helps EV owners save on their charging costs by using more cheap, renewable energy - whether that’s their own excess solar energy, or renewable energy that’s abundant in the grid. In 2025, we are kicking off development of our game-changing vehicle-to-grid technology.
Why we need this role
💡 Mindset Over Experience: We care more about your attitude than your experience.
At Amber, we believe that enabling a culture where everyone is set up to do the best work of their lives and feel connected and empowered is the most important thing we can do to ensure our long-term success. We see managers as the key drivers of our people processes and strategy, and People Ops works closely with leaders to reduce friction across the organisation.
As a People & Talent Advisor, you’ll play a key role by supporting the People Operations team to deliver and execute projects that eliminate high friction, amplify community and set our people up for success.
Reporting to the Senior People Operations Manager, the ideal candidate is a fast learner who thrives in a dynamic environment. You don’t wait for permission, you figure things out, pride yourself on being resourceful. You love supporting your colleagues and solving problems creatively. You bring deep attention to detail, curiosity, and a “how can I help?” attitude to everything you do. This role is best suited to someone who has “T shaped” skills: comfortable spanning the breadth of People Ops and Talent Acquisition, and will go deep into certain projects and functions as the business requires.
We are a lean team who likes to simplify the overcomplicated. There is a real opportunity to make a big impact in our small People Ops team and grow with the company. You will be exposed to many learning opportunities as Amber scales, so we are looking for someone who is ready to take the opportunities with both hands 🙂
