Do amazing work 

A career with Viva Energy is more than just a job. It’s a chance to join a group of people dedicated to supporting Australia’s evolving energy and convenience needs. We’re a leading retail, industrial and energy business, and we’ve been helping Australians reach their destination for more than 120 years.  

Our plans for the future support Australia’s energy transition to sustainable, lower carbon energy solutions.  Through our acquisitions of Coles Express and OTR, we provide Australians with outstanding convenience. 

At the heart of our plans is people power. People who want to grow and evolve with us. People with new perspectives, energy and passion to drive Viva Energy and their careers forward.  

Viva Energy’s Newport Terminal operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, supplying fuel to Melbourne and greater Victoria, including jet fuel to Melbourne Airport.

Fuel products arrive at Newport Terminal by pipeline from our Geelong Refinery and marine import terminals at Holden Dock in Yarraville. Some products also arrive by road tanker.

Newport Terminal has bulk storage tanks for transport fuels, and vehicle filling gantries for fuel, solvents and oils and greases.  Because the Terminal stores and handles significant quantities of fuels, solvents and lubricants, it is designated as a Major Hazard Facility.
