Civils & cabling crews required for HFC MDU & SDU installs throughout Sydney.
Information Session 5pm 25 October – North Ryde

UCG provides telecommunications services throughout Australasia and is at the forefront in the design and construction of next generation broadband networks. We are one of the industry's fastest growing companies and we attribute our success to our people, innovative technology and culture. Very busy throughout Australia on the nbn project and associated opportunities, we form partnerships with subcontracting firms who provide quality scoping, civil construction, cabling, splicing or testing services.
