Asset Portfolio Performance Advisor

Our purpose is to empower the energy future for New Zealand — a future that delivers a net-zero carbon economy and a reliable and secure electricity system.

About the team

The Integrated Planning group supports the safe, reliable and cost-effective performance of Transpower’s grid assets through long-term planning, whole-of-lifecycle costing and risk-based decision-making.

Within Asset Planning, the Portfolio Performance team provides assurance and reporting across asset and maintenance portfolios, helping leaders understand delivery, outcomes and performance across the asset lifecycle.

The opportunity

As Portfolio Performance Advisor, you’ll support performance reporting and insight across Transpower’s asset and maintenance portfolios. You’ll analyse portfolio data to identify trends, issues and opportunities that improve visibility of delivery, value, risk, service objectives and asset outcomes.

You’ll help develop and improve reporting frameworks, performance measures and dashboards across project closeout, cost, data quality, scope delivery and progress tracking. Working with Portfolio Owners and Leads, you’ll support investigations, monitor progress and contribute to stronger asset management decisions.

You’ll also work with technical, delivery, commercial and corporate teams, and external engineering consultants, to identify issues and support continuous improvement. This includes:

• assessing asset and maintenance portfolio outcomes

• improving portfolio reporting frameworks and processes

• turning complex portfolio data into practical insights

• tracking delivery progress and improvement opportunities

• supporting consistent, evidence-based asset management decisions
