Work 76hrs per fortnight and enjoy an RDO!

A permanent full-time opportunity located in the heart of Leederville is currently available, with option for RDO and potential hybrid working arrangements. Do you enjoy working in a high-pressure environment? Have you got the ability to be well organised and self-motivated? Sick of working tedious repetitive work, and get a charge out of major incidents?

If you love performing under pressure, this role may be for you.

Reporting to the Manager – Operational Security & Incident, your job will be managing the Critical Incident Management Systems (CIMS) and ensuring it runs effectively and efficiently. You will coordinate the support, training, and continual improvement of this system.

As the subject matter expert, your stakeholder engagement skills will be vital to this role, as there will be inter-agency government and emergency services engagement with approximately thirty organisations, such as Department of Fire & Emergency Services, Department of Health, WAPOL etc. You will engage with representatives from these CIMS users and the application vendor.

You will establish strong relationships with other agencies as there will be collaboration and project work.

You will have the ability to overcome hurdles when endeavouring to find common grounds with other departments. Transparency is key to a united and successful inter-agency partnership.

Due to the nature of incident management, you may be required to work on weekends or after hours in response to the major incident.

Job is right up my alley, but what about the team?

You will work in a team of helpful and friendly colleagues who live the Water Corporation value of One Team. Your manager will be supportive of you and help guide you through your Water Corporation journey. This is a team who believe in taking actions for the right reasons and making decisions based on Water Corporation values.

A little bit about you.

You are a people-person who has exceptional organisational skills, is flexible and adaptable. You are an ambitious person whereby you are willing to take on accountabilities, are not afraid to ask questions, and truly demonstrate our taking personal ownership value.

You are dependable, especially when big incidents occur.

If you are looking for a repetitive, tedious, business as usual administrative role, this role isn’t for you. There will be administrative support duties however that isn’t the primary fundament of your role. Your key focus will be driving the incident management application.

If you are looking for a technical IT role coding and building systems, this role isn’t for you. Whilst you will be the subject matter expert on providing business requirements of the system, you will not be the one to develop the system upgrades. Instead, you will be in charge of making sure upgrades are scheduled in and participate in the testing of the CIMS upgrades.

This role can be demanding, unpredictable, and volatile. You will have the natural ability to stay calm under pressure in this dynamic environment. You love the uncertainty of what the day will bring and find excitement in incident management support.

This is not your average Monday-Friday job. IT’S WAY BETTER!
