Hydrographic, Electronic and Data Technical Assistant
We will teach you the how, you will bring the enthusiasm!
What you’ll do:
This is a new role in our Water Management Team where you will learn how to provide operational support to the team in the day-to-day collection of hydrological, meteorological, environmental, and asset monitoring data services.
You will be supported with on-the-job and formal technical training to ensure you are an integral member of the team. You will be provided with professional development opportunities so you can work towards becoming a certified practicing hydrographer with the Australian Hydrographers Association.
What will your week look like?
If you like variety and being outside keep reading. Each week will be a bit different, so you will need to be a bit flexible, some weeks could include multiple days in the field carrying and using hydrographer monitoring equipment. Other weeks would consist of inputting the data collected back at the Moonah office or assisting with preparation of future installations.
You will get to travel the state so you need a driver's licence, and you will always be working with at least one other person when in the field, so you have amazing opportunities to learn from dedicated mentors.
