WHY BAI COMMUNICATIONS
At BAI Communications, we keep Australians, from the cities to the outback, connected, and the significance of what we do is felt by everyone.
Our critical communications team actively protect our sites and keep services on air. We work alongside authorities, to operate the NSW Government Radio Network and provide life-line communications to NSW Telco Authority emergency service providers who manage public safety.
We are incredibly proud by the commitment, hard work and leadership our people show every day. Our trusted Field Service teams ensure continuity of our network. Our highly skilled Operators keep the public informed during times of crisis and react quickly to changing operational requirements of a demanding complex network. Our deep engineering, delivery and operational capability make us the partner of choice for the government and industry stakeholders alike.
During times of crisis, such as bushfire or cyclone season, our people travel from around the country to support this critical work. We care for our People. Volunteers for local Fire Service or State Emergency Services are provided with additional time off work at full pay for their volunteering activities. Hiring contractors fill gaps in our usual work and we are therefore always interested in hearing from people looking for permanent or casual work.
We continue to develop world-class solutions for new and emerging technologies. This includes planning for future network improvements which allow our customers to take advantage of technology innovation.
