Sandra Lau

With over 15 years in the resources industry in both mining and downstream oil and gas, Sandra has worked across five Australian states and two continents.  With Bachelor degrees in Mechanical Engineering and Commerce through the University of Melbourne, and a recently completed executive MBA at the Australian School of Graduate Management as part of UNSW, Sandra has held a variety of engineering, project and management roles. 

In her current strategic role as Viva Energy’s Alternative Fuels Manager, Sandra is responsible for understanding changing consumer trends and future consumer mobility options to determine ways in which Viva Energy might participate in an energy system with an eye to the transition to a lower carbon future.  During 2019, Sandra was voted on to the Board of the Australian Hydrogen Council by her industry peers.

Sandra’s passions include travelling, scuba diving, squash and badminton.  Her current goal is to grow granadilla passionfruit in her backyard – after feasting on it in Peru, it is now one of her favourite fruits!
