CEFC staff are largely drawn from the finance and energy sectors, reflecting our specialist investment focus. We have a breadth of expertise across our target sectors, working closely with investment and project partners to deliver clean energy outcomes which make economic and commercial sense while lowering carbon emissions.

In regular conversations with our internal and external stakeholders, it is clear that the expertise, professionalism, collaboration and passion for a common purpose define the CEFC team. We welcome this market recognition of our role as a specialist investor, a critical factor in our continuing ability to positively influence the markets in which we operate.

Together with CEFC staff in 2018-19, we identified four distinct values to reflect the attributes that drive CEFC people and define the way we work with our stakeholders. Staff also participated in values forums to deepen their understanding about the values and how they can be a key lever in our business success.

I work with an engaged, intelligent group of people who bring different skill sets to each matter, issue and problem. It allows for a robust approach to problem solving and delivery of solutions.
