**The Role**
Multiple APS 5 Integrated Logistics Support opportunities exist within the Maritime Explosive Ordnance System Program Office (MEOSPO). The positions exist within both our acquisition (Canberra based positions) and sustainment teams (NSW based positions).

As an APS 5 ILS Practitioner, you will be part of an integrated team of Integrated Logistics specialists to deliver complex logistics systems and inventory management work within an integrated workforce.

You will provide reliable professional advice and outcomes, utilising outstanding stakeholder management skills and expertise to ensure the fundamental logistic information and policy is developed to meet capability requirements.

These capability requirements require operating across a broad range of ILS disciplines, including but not limited to Sustainment, Procurement, Maintenance, Reliability and Maintainability, Configuration Management, Reporting and Supply Support for capabilities.

Every day will be different as you embrace opportunities to:

- provide integrated logistic support for a range of guided weapons and munitions;
- prepare or provide input to relevant briefs and reports.

You will also have the opportunity to further your career through a comprehensive professionalisation program. Excellent written and oral communication skills are an integral aspect of these roles as you will be required to network/communicate at all levels including engaging with outside organisations to achieve MEOSPO objectives.

**About our Team**

The right person for this role will be an individual who under broad direction and in accordance with established priorities, principles, methodology and work practices, is able to collaborate effectively in a logistics team, as well as optimising internal and external stakeholder relationships, in order to develop and maintain a detailed and logical plan to support the delivery of the required capability portfolio.

MEOSPO is an integral part of Explosive Materiel Branch within Land Systems Division which is part of Guided Weapons and Explosive Ordnance Group (GWEOG).

Our team is made up of various disciplines (including engineering, project management, commercial, logistics, and corporate enabling services). We are located in Canberra, Penrith, Ipswich, RAAF Amberley, Melbourne and Rockingham (HMAS Stirling) and our focus is to acquire and sustain guided weapons and munitions for the Australian Defence Force.
