2024 Datacom Aotearoa - Early Careers Programme (Field Engineer) null

Our Why 

Datacom works with organisations and communities across Australia and New Zealand to make a difference in people’s lives and help organisations use the power of tech to innovate and grow. 

About the Opportunity (your why)  

Datacom's Early Careers Programme encompasses a range of career pathways; each tailored to provide a meaningful career and level of support suited to the individual and their level of skill, qualification and experience. We apply a skills-based approach to our next generation of early career joiners. We recognise that further education (beyond HighSchool) is role dependent - in some cases further education is necessary and in other cases learning on the job is a perfect way to gain practical skills and knowledge.

How will I be supported?

Your career at Datacom will kick off with the Talent Elevator Induction. A carefully curated induction programme which ensures you have the best start possible at Datacom.
