Job description

Make a real difference to the infrastructure of our community

We are seeking two (2) practical, capable and process-oriented Asset Systems Officers to assist in the continuous improvement of our asset management function.

This is an opportunity for someone who can bring together engineering understanding, financial acumen and strong systems/data capability and use those skills to support better decisions across council.

About the Role

You will play an important role in maintaining and improving Council's asset information and systems, supporting asset planning and lifecycle management, and turning infrastructure data into useful financial and operational information.

That's okay.

We are deliberately looking beyond traditional asset management roles. You may come from engineering, works, GIS, finance, mining, utilities, construction or infrastructure.
