ABOUT THE ROLE
We are searching for a talented and experienced Electrical and Instrumentation Technician with a proactive approach and positive attitude from an industrial, water or utilities background to join our Asset and Operations Team.
This is a state-wide, field-based role that plays a vital part in ensuring the uninterrupted delivery of water across Tasmania. As the Electrical and Instrumentation Technician, you will be responsible for regular travel across the State to carry out repairs, routine maintenance, modifications, and installation works, while also providing technical guidance and support.
