Job Description

Australia is frequently impacted by severe weather events that are growing in intensity and frequency, leading to increased economic, infrastructure, property, and wellbeing impacts.

The Australian Bureau of Meteorology has taken significant steps to deliver customer-centric, integrated, and resilient national operations through the Community Services Group (CSG). CSG comprises Environmental Prediction Services (EPS), Decision Support Services (DSS), and National Production Services (NPS), enabling scalable, national, and resilient services.

During severe weather events, EPS deploys specialized hazard-based advice, warning, and outlook services. Operating with a national capability, EPS has four predictive service units: Severe Weather, Marine and Antarctic, Water, and Climate. Each unit plays a key role in delivering valuable products and services to the Australian community.

The Severe Weather Team monitors Thunderstorms, Severe Weather, Heavy Rainfall, Tropical Cyclone, and Fire, Heatwave & Air Quality conditions. The team provides advisory services on hazardous or impactful conditions, functioning as a single capability across three locations: Perth, Brisbane, and Melbourne.

Severe Weather Meteorologists develop and maintain expertise in multiple areas and teams for flexible deployment, operational resilience, and diversity of work. This may involve skills contributing outside of Severe Weather into other parts of CSG.

Required Skills and Qualifications
  • Expertise in severe weather forecasting and prediction
  • Strong understanding of meteorological principles and practices
  • Ability to work effectively in a team environment
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills

This role involves working with personal drive and integrity, promoting a positive culture of teamwork and continuous improvement. Shift work and extended hours may be required during severe weather events.

As a member of the Severe Weather Team, you will have the chance to work on complex and challenging projects, developing your skills and expertise in a dynamic and fast-paced environment.
