We are seeking a proactive and adaptable professional to work with our Development and Sales Delivery Teams as a key contributor to our operational efficiency and data-driven workflows. This hybrid role combines data management, GIS expertise, Python scripting, and Microsoft 365 application development with frontline job coordination.
The successful candidate will work closely with teams to understand user and business needs, implement solutions using tools such as Power Apps and Microsoft Lists, and support survey and job management using platforms such as Fulcrum and Power BI.
ABOUT YOU
You may have a couple of years’ experience in a similar role, or you might have built your skills through project-based work and now want to step into something more dynamic and hands-on. Either way, you're someone who wants to be proactively involved — not observing from the sidelines but actively involved in shaping how things get done.
You’ll be front and centre, taking ownership of data processes, understanding the real-world context of the jobs we deliver, and helping drive better ways of working across teams. You’re equally comfortable talking with users to gather requirements as you are getting your head down and delivering under pressure.
You’ll also be working closely with a small but capable in-house development team, contributing to the design and use of internal systems that underpin everything from client contact through to project delivery. You won’t be coding those systems yourself (though an eye for logic and a bit of Python certainly helps), but you will play a critical role in shaping, testing, and deploying the tools that help us run the business smarter.
You're someone who:
* Takes initiative and doesn’t wait to be told what to do.
* Can switch between big-picture thinking and detail-focused delivery.
* Has a natural curiosity for how things work and how they could work better.
* Isn’t afraid to get involved when the pressure is on.
* Wants to work somewhere that’s growing, changing, and values input from all levels.
