The Opportunity

If you're someone who enjoys diving into the data to find the "why," and then translating that into a "how" that benefits our local community, we want to hear from you.

Your day might see you processing data, presenting to a community group, preparing grant applications, or collaborating with internal and external customers/stakeholders on future asset needs. Whether you're working with internal teams, contractors, or our local community, you'll be the go‐to specialist who turns raw numbers into real-world improvements, making sure our infrastructure isn't just maintained, but actually gets better every day.
