Manawatu, New Zealand Cgr Services Full time

About the role
As an Information Management Specialist, you will be responsible for enhancing the Army's ability to conduct operations through providing accurate and timely information support within a Command Post environment. This includes battlespace information management, enabling situational awareness and user support in both domestic and international environments.

Service Army
Specialisation Intelligence, IT and Communications
Location Palmerston North Christchurch
Starting Trade Training $64,177

For future intakes, you will join the Army as an IT Specialist, before branching into a specific trade towards the end of Signals Corps training: Either Information Management Specialist, Electronic Warfare Operator, Information Systems Operator, Radio Frequency Technician or Systems Engineer.
As an Information Management Specialist, formerly Operational Support and Information Specialist, you will be responsible for information management through the creation and administration of web-based technologies. This is a part of the wider communications solutions used across all levels of the Army's organisation. You will primarily be responsible for military-based programmes including Collaborative Environments (e.g. SharePoint), Battle Management Systems (digital mapping) and radio over internet. You will also be responsible for configuring applications, organising networks and drives and working with various applications.
This includes maintaining the daily flow of information (routine and incident based), using both voice and data communications. You will work in a team environment and will have the opportunities to be attached to other units such as Infantry, Logistics, Armoured, Engineers, Artillery or international militaries, to support their communication and information requirements.
Job on base
Your day-to-day activities will involve working as a member of a Communications Access Node (CAN) Detachment. Within camp, you will be responsible for testing equipment and support tools (web-based applications), troubleshooting and solving any technical issues. You may assist staff within a headquarters to manage their information flows.
You will also conduct training to stay proficient in general soldiering skills such as physical fitness, weapon handling, medical and vehicle-based training tasks. In the field, you will assist in the establishment of communication networks, both computer and radio-based. You will then be responsible for information management within a Command Post, providing user support and ensuring our communications links are functional.
Job on deployment
Deployments of NZ Army personnel will almost always require our own communication networks. As such, Information Management Specialists are highly deployable and are employed on overseas missions and exercises, primarily in support of other NZ Army units. You will manage a range of modern communications equipment, ensuring important information is received and disseminated in the right format, to the right person at the right time.
As Information Management Specialists, we manage the flow of information, so that it's easily understood, easily seen and allows the flow of information to work a lot quicker.
Career progression and training
Your trade training includes a mixture of courses and on-the-job training, and will span over an approximate six-year period. Courses to progress your career will vary in content. Trade specific coursing will focus on your individual technical skills as Information Management Specialists.
Promotion coursing will focus on your personal communication, decision-making and leadership ability. Further coursing will focus on your ability to ensure that the commander can make tactical decisions. This is created by providing technical mastery in order to provide the right communications solutions in the right format, in a timely and accurate manner to the right people.
Initial posting locations will see you posted to Burnham or Linton Military Camps. As your career progresses, job opportunities in Auckland, Waiouru and Wellington can become available.
Upon enlistment into the Army you will be posted to Waiouru Military Camp. Here you will complete 16 weeks of basic military training to find out if you have what it takes to be in the Army.
The training will include:

Organisation and Administration
Army Customs and Protocol
Drill and Parades
Military Field Skills and Weapon Training
First Aid
Physical Fitness
