Meet Kylie New, Moxy Operator for the iconic Snowy 2.0 Project
And talented recent addition to the construction team
“Two years ago, I embarked on an exciting journey with Future Generation Joint Venture, initially working as part of the kitchen team on site for the Snowy 2.0 Project. In 2023, I transitioned into the construction side of the project, taking on the role of a Moxy Operator, and I’ve loved every moment since.
“As a Moxy Operator, my main responsibilities involve operating heavy machinery and transporting materials. I ensure the safe and efficient movement of materials, which is crucial to supporting the overall construction process.
“My choice to work in the engineering and construction industry stems from a long-standing fascination with construction. It’s incredibly rewarding to watch a project progress from the ground up.
“Looking ahead, I’m excited about the potential to upskill and advance within Webuild. The opportunities for growth and development in this field are huge, and I’m eager to take them on.
“One of the aspects I enjoy most about working on this project is the team environment. The camaraderie amongst colleagues is fantastic, and the stunning views at Tantangara are a definite perk too.
“For anyone considering joining this business or project, I can say that it’s a highly rewarding experience. Being part of such a significant project is something truly special.”
About the Snowy 2.0 Project
Webuild is part of Future Generation Joint Venture - FGJV, the principal contractor for Snowy Hydro Limited, delivering the iconic , which will help underpin Australia’s renewable energy future.
Snowy 2.0 will increase the generating capacity of the Snowy Scheme by 2,000 megawatts (MW), up from current capacity which stands at 4,100 MW, and will also triple its pumping capabilities which the Scheme currently has at Tumut 3 power station.
Importantly, Snowy Hydro supplies the National Electricity Market at times of peak demand. As renewable energy sources continue to feed a greater proportion of power into the grid, Snowy 2.0 will help keep the lights on when the wind is not blowing or the sun is not shining.
