Desktop Research & Design Support

• Support RF design activities through structured desk-based research
• Use industry tools (e.g. Ranplan, iBwave) to assist with basic modelling and predictions
• Assist with RF data collection and analysis tools (e.g. TEMS) for validation activities
• Apply fundamental RF concepts (e.g. propagation, coverage) in day-to-day tasks

Site Surveys & Data Collection

• Support site visits alongside Design Engineers to capture key design data
• Take accurate measurements, photographs, and survey records
• Assist in collecting signal strength data and other technical inputs
• Use survey equipment in line with guidance and best practice
• Support validation and cable routing surveys

Documentation & Reporting

• Organise and maintain project documentation (photos, reports, equipment lists)
• Support the preparation of RF design outputs under supervision

What We’re Looking For

This is an entry-level role and training and guidance will be given if you do not have all the experience and skills listed here.

Experience & Knowledge

• Exposure to site-based or technical environments
• Basic understanding of mobile networks (2G–5G) and RF principles
• Awareness of RF tools (e.g. iBwave, Ranplan, TEMS) or strong interest in learning
• Familiarity with survey methods, mapping, or technical data capture or strong interest in learning
• Competent in MS Office (Excel, Word)
• CAD or drawing mark-up experience (desirable)

Skills & Attributes

• Comfortable working on-site (indoors and outdoors)
• Strong attention to detail when capturing and recording data
• Well organised with the ability to manage information and equipment
• Confident using tools and technology
• A proactive, hands-on approach with a willingness to develop
