The early IT days 

Starting out his journey on a help desk at UniTAB (now TABCORP) in 2006, Trevor’s time in IT has taken him through several industries including construction as an IT Infrastructure Manager and childhood education as a Systems Engineer.

In 2011 he made the transition into energy, working at Stanwell for almost 12 years before joining the CleanCo team in 2023. Trevor noted the change was driven by a need for “a new challenge”.

“CleanCo is very dynamic and was still trying to build an identity for itself, so I thought it’s a place I could go and help make some instant impact and wins.”

On a daily basis you can find Trev managing CleanCo’s IT infrastructure, following up on any outstanding tasks and checking the IT realm for any potential incidents. He also ensures the internet, Wi-Fi and meeting rooms are all running smoothly!

CleanCo’s great team

Trev has a list of things he enjoys about working here at CleanCo but says the people are at the top!

“I’ve got a really good team, and I enjoy working with not only broader ICT team but also the site teams,” he said.

“I’ve got a good line of open communication with the sites, so I quite enjoy the fact they feel they can call and chat about the IT issues they’re having.

“Some differences and small changes we make actually have a big and positive impact for them and makes their working life just that bit easier.”

One of the best things he says about IT is that his skills are transferable to just about any job!

“You can go between industries because the principles are essentially the same.

“The frontline workers are very industry specific, and that knowledge is gold to any organisation but a career in IT can take you anywhere and everywhere.”

Looking ahead

While Trev enjoys the day-to-day work at CleanCo, he’s also very excited for what the future will bring to CleanCo.

“I’m really excited to see the growth over the next few years, not just in terms of our IT capabilities but also the impact CleanCo will have in the energy transition.”
