You will receive a generous living away from home allowance whilst travelling along with working alongside an inclusive site team.

  • Rod, Rope & Hauling – hauling multiple cables by hand & machinery, quality checks.

  • Current, HR Heavy Rigid truck license
  • Operator & VOC Excavator
  • Operator & VOC Dozer

  • Vehicle loading crane
  • Dogman / Rigger

About The Project

The ICF fibre network is an iconic project that only comes around once in a lifetime, It involves the renewal/upgrade of the existing inter-city network across the Nation. The new inter-city fibre cable uses technically improved optic fibre cable, and architecture which will provide additional capacity between capital cities and remote communities to enhance performance and improve connectivity to regional Australia which will support the anticipated growth in bandwidth over the next 25+ years. It's a nation-building investment that benefits both those living in cities and in regional communities.
