- Sydney, Darwin, Brisbane, Adelaide, Hobart, Melbourne, Perth

We are seeking enthusiastic and qualified Electronics, Electrical or Instrumentation technicians or engineers, ideally with previous field experience for the Bureau's eight Operations Hubs around the country.

APS recruitment can be a prolonged process and therefore we are implementing a talent pipeline recruitment process to create a strong merit pool to fill technical field services positions as they become available across the APS3 or APS5 levels. These may be ongoing and non-ongoing opportunities at the eight Operations Hub.

**Who are you?**
You have an appetite for working in remote locations as a willingness to travel is essential.

You are a suitably qualified team player who likes to get hands-on in the field, and the prospect of seeing many parts of Australia excites you.

**Who are we?**
The Observing Operations Hubs are the Bureau of Meteorology's premier technical operations centres.

Staff based at the Operations Hubs travel far and wide utilising 4WD's, plane's, boats, and helicopters to maintain service delivery within the various instrumentation networks. This includes:

- Rain Radars
- Automatic Weather Stations (AWS)
- Upper-Air monitoring systems (sounding balloons)
- Sea Level Monitoring Stations
- Wave Buoys
- Satellite ground reception and space weather instruments
- Wave height buoys
- Flood warning / rainfall monitoring systems
- Cooperative observers, volunteer rainfall stations
- Communications, telemetry and instrumentation systems

We are part of a national maintenance workforce and there is every likelihood of travel to other parts of Australia on occasion to support the other eight Hubs around the country.

We offer specialised, in-house competency-based training on all our equipment and will ensure you have the necessary tools and skills to undertake this work.

We strive to deliver exceptional customer service, as we engage with stakeholders, contractors, support staff and the Australian public.

We promote a diverse and inclusive workplace culture that prioritises the health, safety and wellbeing of all our staff.

You will report to and be mentored by a Team Lead within the Observing Operations Hub.
