About the role

  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date asset data across the 3 Waters asset registers (BAU).
  • Action and track day-to-day requests for asset information from internal customers and stakeholders, escalating where needed.
  • Run standard updates in asset management models (e.g. PowerPlan) and learn how outputs support planning and investment decisions.
  • Produce routine reports and dashboards (e.g. risk, critical assets, performance) and complete basic data checks and investigations.
  • Follow and maintain documented processes and work instructions, and suggest small improvements when you spot a better way.
  • Provide BAU support for asset management tools (e.g. basic troubleshooting, user access/support tasks, and helping maintain simple user guides).

Requirements

  • A relevant qualification (or working towards one) in a field like Business, ICT, Geography, Spatial Science, or Engineering.
  • Comfort working with data (through study, internships, or a previous role), including spreadsheets (Excel), databases, or business systems—and a willingness to learn Council’s asset systems.
  • An interest in GIS/spatial data and strong attention to detail (basic skills are great—training and development will be provided).
  • A BAU mindset: reliable follow-through, good time management, and a customer-service approach to responding to requests.
  • Willingness to learn new tools and communicate information clearly; exposure to asset modelling tools (e.g. PowerPlan) is helpful but not required.
  • Good written communication skills for documenting steps and updating records, plus a collaborative approach when working with Digital Services and other stakeholders.
  • Experience with Accela (or similar systems) is an advantage, but we’re also happy to train the right person.
Benefits
  • 5 weeks annual leave
  • flexible hours
  • work from home options
  • career development opportunities
