Join a highly capable and knowledgeable team

  • Unique opportunity to shape and innovate flood planning for Melbourne
  • Excellent mentoring and career advancement opportunities

The Company

Melbourne Water's services range from providing clean drinking water, treating sewage in order to recover and re-use valued resources, planning to manage flooding, and keeping all 25,000 km of Melbourne's rivers, creeks, and catchments healthy.

Effectively they manage all parts of the water cycle that are essential to Melbourne's way of life today, tomorrow and for generations to come.


The Role

Key responsibilities include:
Support the Manager Service Programs Flood and Drainage and Senior Asset Planner to maintain and renew Melbourne Water's civil and (M&E) drainage infrastructure by:

  • Understanding of asset management and drainage management principles.
  • Experience in managing civil and M&E drainage assets.
  • Experience in project management and able to manage consultants to deliver agreed projects.

  • Good problem solving and analytical skills which adds value to business and customers.
  • Experience in working in collaborative team environments.
  • Demonstrated ability to effectively communicate verbally and in writing with all stakeholders and to prepare and deliver information to an audience in a professional manner.
  • Demonstrated experience in supporting a healthy, safe, and supportive work environment.
  • Knowledge of Local Government drainage Capex and Opex programs advantageous.
  • Victorian Driver's License.

The Rewards and Culture

In this position you'll have the unique opportunity to contribute to best practice flood modelling at Melbourne Water and in turn, influence other stakeholders and organisations that collaborate with Melbourne Water.
