CAD Team Leader - Utilities - Silcar Communications Job Opening in Sydney

Job Opening: CAD Team Leader - Utilities
Location: Sydney

Silcar Communications is acknowledged as a leading provider of infrastructure planning, design, construction, maintenance and operations to the Australian Telecommunications industry including NBNCo. In 2011 we were awarded contracts to roll out the NBN across NSW, the ACT and Queensland.

As part of our Design function, we are now looking for an experienced and committed CAD Team Leader to join our Sydney Corporate Project Team as we roll out fibre to the home in the coming months.

Job Requirements:

Solid CAD (esp. AutoCad) background
Team leadership experience
A background in Engineering Utilities (power, water, drainage, gas etc)
Enthusiasm for learning about Telco requirements
Experience training/mentoring a group of younger designers

Our designs are drafted using SPATIALinfo (www.spatialinfo.com). We will provide all necessary training for you to come up to speed with the package and a solid CAD background, especially in AutoCad, will give you a flying start.

We put a premium on a background drafting in the Utilities sector. Our designs are all about pits and pipes (and poles). We are using game-changing GIS technology in the field to verify existing infrastructure and you will interact closely with the scopers on the ground.

Based at our Rhodes Project office you will have responsibility for managing the NSW Design Office. As well as your technical skills, you will liaise closely with the Engineering and Construction functions as well as with the client. You must be comfortable working in a fast-paced environment, be a good multi-tasker and take responsibility for the Design team producing designs on time as required. We are planning a significant ramp-up over the coming months and we expect all team members to deliver on their commitments.

If you are from outside the Telco space then this is a terrific opportunity to use your experience to shoe-horn yourself in to a new industry. If you have a Telco drafting background, all the better.
