We are a diverse workforce which includes Australian Defence Force personnel, Australian Public Servants and Defence Industry Partners. The AORCASPO sustains a range of maritime capability, from the new replenishment oilers (AORs) to auxiliary commercial vessels. AOR HMS Ships Supply & Stalwart were built by Spanish shipbuilding company, Navantia.

The vessels carry fuel, dry cargo, water, food, ammunition, equipment and spare parts in operational support for the deployed naval or combat forces operating far from the port on the high seas. In addition to replenishment, the ships can be used to combat against environmental pollution at sea, provide logistics support for the armed forces, and to support humanitarian operations and relief operations following a natural disaster. The auxiliary commercial vessels include maritime aviation and navigation training vessels, a border force protection cutter, as well as submarine search and rescue capabilities.

You will be a team player and a ‘people person’ that loves engaging with staff. You will be a team player with excellent interpersonal and verbal communication skills and the ability to liaise with a broad range of stakeholders, including contractors, APS and ADF members. You will also have highly developed written communication skills. You will be someone who genuinely fosters a curiosity for innovative possibilities and an enthusiasm to learn and drive change in order to gain efficiencies.

You will display an ability to learn rapidly and adapt quickly to changing complex situations and uncertainty. Finally, you will be comfortable and confident taking ownership of outcomes and leading tasks to completion and success. This is a desk based position involving computer use and working with others towards shared goals in a collaborative and fun team environment.
