Shaping the Future of Gladstone - Alpha HPA’s Vision for Innovation

Alpha HPA’s Gladstone-based HPA First Project is more than cutting-edge manufacturing; it’s a launchpad for the workforce of the future.

At the heart of this project is a big idea: blending technology, sustainability, and education to prepare people for industries that drive tomorrow’s innovation.

Materials That Matter, Jobs That Inspire

Their bespoke ultra-high purity aluminium products drive significant performance improvements for application across a wide range of in-demand industries such as electronics, optics, lighting and lithium-ion battery sectors – the building blocks of a smarter, greener future. But this isn’t just about products; it’s about people.

With 120 new roles set to launch in late 2026/early 2027, career paths in process operations, engineering, mechanical maintenance, lab work, environmental safety and so much more are waiting to be filled by passionate locals eager to grow and make a difference with them.

Partnerships Power Progress

Alpha HPA believes the best ideas start when education meets experience. Through hands-on training, collaborations with local businesses, and career development programs, Alpha HPA are arming the next generation with the skills to thrive in a rapidly evolving world.

Whether it’s mastering innovative processing technologies or embracing sustainability practices, every role is an opportunity to lead the charge into a cleaner, tech-driven future.

Sustainability at the Core

Alpha HPA’s proprietary Smart SX Technology is rewriting the rulebook for manufacturing. Powered by renewable energy and designed with minimal waste and environmental impact, it’s proof that cutting-edge tech can work in harmony with the planet.

Why Gladstone? Why Now?

Their Gladstone-based facility, currently under construction, will be one of the world’s largest producers of high-purity aluminium materials, putting Australia at the forefront of the global critical minerals sector. This project is set to be a platform for careers, collaboration, and community pride.

A Shared Mission

Alpha HPA is bridging the gap between classroom learning and real-world innovation. For teachers, this is an exciting opportunity to inspire students to see the possibilities in STEM, sustainability, and technology… and to shape a workforce ready to lead a future we can all be proud of.
