I'm not aware of them doing 'intakes'. They sometimes advertise prior to summer for contract (fixed term) staff to help cover the busy period, but besides that you might only see a couple of positions advertised each year.

Appreciate it SmashedXR6T.

Thought it would have been a little like SJA - doing the Comms intake yearly.

Comcen do actually fall under Operations with the Manager Comcen reporting to the Assistant Chief Operations Officer.
