nbn is the team behind the design, build and operation of the nbn™ network - one of Australia’s largest technology infrastructure projects. Our goal is simple: help deliver Australia's first national wholesale-only, open-access broadband network.
But the nbn™ network is so much more than access to fast internet. A state of the art communications network can open up a world of possibilities in areas such as education, business, innovation, healthcare, flexibility, and entertainment. It will help ensure our digital future and give Australians the opportunity to be more productive, more creative, more efficient and more connected – benefits we can enjoy for decades to come.
Working at nbn, you’ll be part of delivering one of the largest infrastructure projects Australia has seen, providing you with opportunity, flexibility and exposure to a vast range of projects.
Our pillars of diversity
As part of our Diversity and Inclusion strategy, we have a tailored approach for five areas of demographic diversity. Underpinning everything we do is a recognition of the value of fostering a truly inclusive workplace culture to ensure that all our people, no matter their background or experience, feel involved, empowered and valued. We recognise that there are certain demographic groups who have traditionally been under-represented or disadvantaged in the workplace. For this reason, our five areas of focus are:
Gender Equality
Our commitment to gender balance means that we actively focus on ensuring that all our people have a fair go at reaching their career aspirations. We are committed to ensuring that any obstacles that may exist for women are minimised so all employees can have the opportunity to thrive. We take the importance of increasing the participation of women in the workforce seriously. We continue to have a strong focus on increasing female representation across the business, with specific targets at senior management levels, supported by organisation-wide initiatives including:
- Clear gender targets with ongoing performance published in our annual report
- Identifying and developing emerging leaders and high potential females across all business areas
- Centralised Women’s Development Network for mentoring, networking and career development
- Informal regional and divisional female networking groups
- Accessibility of executives to women across nbn
- Opportunities for flexible working arrangements for all employees
