See yourself working here

Are you passionate about spatial data, automation and building empowering data products? We are seeking a talented Spatial & Open Data Analyst to join our high performing team. In this role, you’ll be at the forefront of managing key spatial systems, streamlining data workflows and delivering standardised spatial products that support a range of business functions, regulatory needs and public transparency initiatives.

As a trusted advisor and technical lead, you’ll provide spatial expertise across a wide range of initiatives, conducting spatial analysis, extracting insights, and producing high-quality reports, presentations, and visualisations. Your work will directly inform operational, strategic, and regulatory decision making, helping shape how Ausgrid delivers essential energy services across the network.

You’ll also play a key role in developing and maintaining interactive mapping and spatial solutions, leveraging new technologies and platforms to meet evolving user needs. Collaboration is key, and you’ll facilitate external data sharing with a variety of stakeholders, ensuring open data accessibility and regulatory compliance. By creating repeatable and standardised spatial and non-spatial data products, you'll empower internal teams to self-serve through reusable models embedded in our enterprise data platforms. This is a unique opportunity to be a technical leader in spatial analytics at one of Australia’s largest electricity networks.

You’ll provide subject matter expertise and help shape the management of the Geospatial Data Domain, contributing to a more connected, efficient, and data-driven Ausgrid.

What you bring to the role

Our hiring decisions are based on your experience, skills, passion, attitude and alignment to our core values. To succeed, you’ll have a combination of technical expertise, industry knowledge, and a collaborative mindset. You hold a tertiary qualification in GIS, Spatial Science, or a related discipline, or equivalent industry experience that demonstrates deep understanding of the field.

You have hands-on experience in the utilities or infrastructure sectors, with a strong grasp of network operations, asset management systems, and relevant industry standards. Knowledge of spatial systems is supported by experience with platforms such as Smallworld GIS, QGIS (or other spatial platforms), Databricks and FME. An understanding of electrical networks or other utility systems will help you succeed.

You are skilled at evaluating and improving systems and processes, and you’re not afraid to challenge the status quo to find smarter ways of working. You bring a high level of proficiency with Microsoft productivity tools, and you can analyse complex data, draw meaningful insights, and present them clearly to a range of audiences. Strong written and verbal communication skills are essential, and you can explain complex spatial and technical information to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. You thrive in a collaborative team environment and can manage multiple priorities in a fast-moving setting while maintaining detail and quality outcomes.

Although not mandatory, the following skills and experience are highly desirable:

- Ability to motivate, influence, manage and develop a team, fostering a positive and productive work environment and a culture of high performance.
- Demonstrated presentation skills that clearly articulate spatial insights and enable the creation of visually compelling assets.
- Mapping expertise (environmental, planning, etc), enabling accurate creation and dissemination of externally focused geospatial datasets.
- Proficiency in SQL or related programming languages to extract, manipulate, and integrate spatial datasets, driving automation.
- Understanding or experience with SAP enterprise asset management system.
