Information Systems Operator

1 month ago

Manawatu, New Zealand Cgr Services Full time

About the role
With excellent training in the operation of sophisticated computer systems, this is an IT job unlike any in the civilian world.
As part of your training, you will initially receive a Diploma, and later a Bachelors in Information and Communication Technology, all while getting paid and experiencing the best the Army has to offer.

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 Systems Operator, Electronic Warfare Operator, Information Management Specialist, Radio Frequency Technician, or Systems Engineer.
As an Information Systems Operator (ISOP), your role is to provide technical IT support to the NZ Army's Communication Information Systems (CIS) fleet.
In this role, you will work in a team environment, often in high-pressure situations. You will ensure integral communication systems are established and maintained to support our personnel in achieving their tasks.
During your training, you will be taught to establish and maintain computer networks. From client laptops and user support to local area networks and server hardware, you will be able to design, build, configure, and maintain the IT equipment used by the Army.
Job on base
Your day-to-day activities will involve working as a member in a Communications Access Node (CAN) Detachment. You will be responsible for installing and administrating operating systems on laptops, computers, servers, and networks.
Additionally, as an applications specialist, your role may see you working face to face with users or over the phone from a support desk.
You will also conduct training to stay proficient in soldiering skills such as physical fitness, weapon handling, first aid, and general teamwork.
Job on deployment
Deployments of NZ Army personnel will almost always require our own communication networks. As such, Information Systems Operators are highly deployable and are deployed in a variety of overseas missions and exercises.
Whilst on deployment, you can expect to work alongside personnel from other nations' militaries, as well as the Navy and Air Force.
You will be responsible for establishing and maintaining the NZ Army's computer networks and equipment and providing support to users when required.
Career progression and training
Your trade training includes a mixture of Army courses, on-the-job training, and tertiary study, spanning over an approximate seven-year period.
Your initial posting location will be to Linton Military Camp, Palmerston North. You will spend your first year conducting Army-specific training and communication coursing, prior to studying for two years at UCOL.
Upon receiving your Diploma, you will return to the Army and apply the skills and knowledge you have learnt within the organisation.
Salary and benefits
Careers in the Army are well-rewarded, diverse, and exciting. As you become more experienced and move up through the ranks, gaining additional skills and qualifications, your salary will rise accordingly.

Under Initial Training: $50,597
Starting Trade Training: $64,177
Future Potential Earnings: $129,061

Earn a competitive salary while training or learning your trade, along with additional allowances for time spent in the field, at sea, overseas, or deployed on operations.
