Chatswood, Australia AARNet Full time

Dynamic role designing large scale telecommunications projects
- Work on diverse, impactful projects
- Sydney or Melbourne location

**About AARNet**:
Australia’s Academic and Research Network (AARNet), founded in 1989, has played a pivotal role in shaping Australia’s digital landscape as the pioneers of the country’s Internet. Our mission extends beyond mere connectivity; we are the architects, builders, and operators of a world-class network infrastructure that fuels critical research and learning. At AARNet, innovation thrives within a vibrant community

**The Role**:
AARNet is seeking an enthusiastic **Civil Design & Construction Planner** to design telecommunications fibre optic projects. This role involves producing detailed designs for projects of varying sizes, complexities, and locations across all Australian states, both regional and metro. With the assistance of field staff, you will investigate possible fibre routes, develop cost models and estimations, and produce civil and mechanical designs that will service Australia’s academic and research sector.

**Responsibilities**:
As a member of the Infrastructure Group, you will work closely with Construction Managers and our project planning team to conceptualise fibre optic construction projects that meet strategic objectives and customer requirements. You will investigate and plan potential projects, balancing technical project requirements with civil construction methodology options to produce project drafts, drawings, and proposals that are commercially viable.

Your interpersonal skills will support you in connecting and empathising with internal and external stakeholders, ranging from customers to impacted landowners. (Previous experience in first-person land access/negotiation is highly desirable but not essential.) You will demonstrate excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, to interpret project requirements and provide clear and concise messaging.

Project requirements will differ between each project, and you will be required to produce fit-for-purpose civil designs, drawing on your ability to manage project workloads and volumes. The variety and volume of projects will draw on your effective organisation and planning skills.

Projects will range in size, location, and complexity, and regular travel to regional locations across Australia will be required to gain an ‘on the ground’ understanding of the network. This will assist you in conceptualising projects and potential paths

**Expertise, experience & qualifications**:

- You have good written and verbal communication skills
- You have strong computer skills and are comfortable using a range of design software including AutoCad & Visio
- You have knowledge and experience with construction methodologies
- You have experience designing construction routes in the telecommunications industry. Similar underground construction industries such as Power or Pipelines will be considered.
- You have strong organisation and planning skills
- You have good interpersonal skills and will enjoy working collaboratively

**Why Work at AARNet?**:
**Make an impact**: By working with us, you’ll directly contribute to critical research in fields like astronomy, physics, earth observation, environment, health, and medicine. Our mission matters, and we’re committed to providing equal opportunities for all.

**Competitive Benefits and Conditions**:

- Superannuation: Enjoy a 17% superannuation contribution.
- Parental/Adoption Leave: We offer 24 weeks of paid parental leave and superannuation top-up.
- Secondary Carer Leave: 16 weeks of paid parental leave for secondary caregivers.
- Wellness Leave: 2 days per month paid Women’s wellness leave.
- Family & Domestic Violence Leave: 20 days of paid leave.
- Other Supportive Leaves: Paid leave for various life events such as weddings, deaths, trauma, and disasters.
- Purchased Leave: Options to purchase additional Annual Leave.
- Flexible Work Options: We support work-life balance.
- Equal Opportunity Focus: We value diversity and inclusion.
- Social Responsibility and Ethics: We lead by example.
- Cutting-Edge Technologies: Access to work with the latest industry technology.
