This program is designed to empower Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people through social and economic development, delivered by experienced veterans and Indigenous professionals.

What's on Offer

  • An 18 month, fixed Term employment agreement (Paid)
  • Full training provided – no prior experience required.
  • A supportive environment with mentors and resources.
  • Opportunities to grow into a long-term career in tech
  • Opportunity to work from home as well as form our state-of-the-art offices

Why join us here at Datacom? 

Datacom is one of Australia and New Zealand's largest suppliers of Information Technology professional services.

It's our people that give Datacom its unique culture and energy that you can feel from the moment you meet with us. 

We care about our people and provide a range of perks such as social events, chill-out spaces, remote working, flexi-hours and professional development courses to name a few. You'll have the opportunity to learn, develop your career, connect and bring your true self to work. You will be recognised and valued for your contributions and be able to do your work in a collegial, flat-structured environment. 

We operate at the forefront of technology to help Australia and New Zealand's largest enterprise organisations explore possibilities and solve their greatest challenges, so you will never run out of interesting new challenges and opportunities. 

We want Datacom to be an inclusive and welcoming workplace for everyone and take pride in the steps we have taken and continue to take to make our environment fun and friendly, and our people feel supported.
