At Urban Utilities, our purpose is simple yet powerful – Enrich Quality of Life. With a $7 billion asset base and services spanning 1.5 million residents and more than 31,000 commercial customers across South East Queensland, we are committed to enhancing the liveability of our communities every day.

Your Opportunity

Our Operations Hub keeps the network running. This team coordinates access to our water and wastewater networks 24/7, protecting public health, minimising cost, and delivering an exceptional experience for customers and delivery partners.

As a Support Officer, you’ll back up our Control Room Operators and Crew Leader. You’ll process permits, manage enquiries, pull together operational data and reporting, and step into the Operator role when needed. No two shifts are the same.

What You’ll Deliver

• Collate operational data using SCADA, Power BI and other reporting tools

• Manage the Network Access Inbox; planned works, permit extensions, failed shuts and scheduling queries

• Review and process permit applications against safety and legislative requirements

• Handle water quality enquiries and provide resolutions to customers

• Support the Control Room during wet weather events and incident management

• Manage after hours customer faults and emergency calls

• Back up Control Room Operators, including SCADA monitoring and raising work orders in Ellipse

About You

• Strong understanding of task-specific procedures, workflows and systems

• Confidence with Microsoft products; exposure to Urban Access, Ellipse, SCADA, EMS, Genesys, CRM, Power BI, JIRA or Confluence is a plus

• Experience in the water industry or customer service is desirable

• A Certificate III in Water Industry Operations is highly regarded, but not essential

• Ability to work our 24/7 Control Room roster: 4 days on, 4 days off (worked as 2 day shifts and 2 night shifts), including working the maximum planned shift length of 12.25hrs

• Eligibility for security clearance under SOCI requirements.

At Urban Utilities, we believe our workforce should reflect the community we serve.
