Are you passionate about marine safety and keen to pursue an investigative career?

The role

We’re seeking an experienced marine specialist to join the team as a Marine Accident Investigator.

You’ll be deployed to marine accident sites, along with an Investigator in Charge, to manage and undertake a site examination and gather evidence. Back in the office you’ll carry out very detailed and thorough analysis and research as you draft your in-depth investigation report, findings and recommendations, for consideration by the Commission.

The role is Wellington based in TAIC’s central city office.

About the Organisation

The Transport Accident Investigation Commission (TAIC) is an independent Crown entity.

TAIC’s principal purpose is to determine the circumstances and causes of certain aviation, maritime and rail accidents and incidents, with a view to avoiding similar occurrences in the future, rather than to ascribe blame to any person.

About You

This role will require you to apply your expertise both at the accident site and at your desk, from site management and evidence gathering to researching, analysing and writing your highly detailed, in-depth and robust investigation report and safety recommendations.

You’ll have extensive maritime experience, hold academic qualifications in naval architecture, marine engineering or another related field, and possess high level:

• Plain English report writing abilities
• Attention to detail
• Analytical and problem solving capabilities
• Verbal communication skills
• Stakeholder engagement skills
• Project and time management abilities.

Given you’ll attend accident sites, you will also need to be:

• Medically and physically fit – able to pass and maintain a medical certification
• Emotionally and psychologically mature to handle stressful and emotionally difficult situations
• Able to travel domestically at short notice.

Your work will involve a range of vessel types and accidents, and you’ll engage with a wide variety of stakeholders and subject matter experts. The work is incredibly interesting and engaging and you will be well supported and receive world class training and professional development.

Over time you’ll be able to apply your developed investigative skills to support other transport modal investigations too, further enhancing your experience and professional development. Your ongoing work will contribute to marine, rail and aviation safety, rather than ascribing blame.

How to apply

If this excellent accident investigation role is the career opportunity that can showcase your combined marine experience, analytical thinking and writing skills, then apply now!

Please include a cover letter written by you, outlining your suitability and interest in this role.

You’ll be joining a small dedicated team committed to transport safety and no repeat accidents. For any queries or to obtain a copy of the job description, please contact John Keith john.keith@talentinternational.com or Jacaleen Williams Jacaleen.williams@talentinternational.com at Talent International.

A significant portion of the role will involve Infrastructure as Code, building and maintaining Azure environments and deployment pipelines, while also working across networking, security, architecture and customer requirements.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to cloud architecture discussions and translate high-level requirements into practical technical solutions
• Ensure environments meet appropriate network security, firewall and security-control requirements
• Participate in technical workshops with customers and external stakeholders, including networking and security teams
• Support project implementation from initial scoping through to deployment into customer environments

About you
To be successful in this role, you will need the following:

• Solid previous experience as a DevOps Engineer
• Advanced experience with Terraform and Infrastructure as Code
• Strong Kubernetes & Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) experience
• Experience with Helm Charts and containerised application deployments
• Strong experience building and supporting CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps
• Good understanding of cloud networking, private networks, virtual machines, databases, firewalls and security controls
• Strong troubleshooting skills across both application and infrastructure layers
• Experience working in secure, regulated or government environments will be highly regarded
• Strong communication skills with the ability to work across developers, infrastructure, networking, security and external customer teams
• Flexibility to occasionally attend later meetings with international stakeholders, with flexible working arrangements available around these requirements

Please note that if successful, you will be required to pass police and employment checks.
