The Opportunity

Are you someone who thrives both independently and as part of a close-knit team? Do you enjoy being active and out in the community, while also bringing structure and precision to your office work?

Based at our centrally located office at 140 William Street, Perth, you'll contribute to a safe, accessible, and well-managed transport system that supports our thriving community.
