Telecommunications Technicians are employed by a variety of organisations
including Clear Communications, Telecom, Telstra, Optus, Vodafone, network and exchange equipment
suppliers, radio and television network operators, business equipment suppliers and
installation/maintenance service providers like Alstom, Connectel and a host of other contracting
companies.
Technicians are involved in the operation, maintenance and repair of
telecommunications and broadcasting networks and equipment. They work indoors and outdoors and in
association with rigging and engineering staff. This vocation involves a lot of local travel and the
opportunity to seek high-paid employment overseas.
A Telecommunications Rigger combines all the skills of a Telecommunications
Technician with the specialist skills required to work in extreme locations, such as underground tunnels
and at heights on buildings and towers.
