• You will set up data kiosks and people counters, including properly positioning devices, downloading data, troubleshooting technical difficulties, changing batteries, updating software, and working with Information & Communication Technology (ICT) to resolve technical issues.

• You will report cleanliness or maintenance issues using the Port's See-Say app. You will also report unsafe conditions, hazards, unattended or suspicious items, and disruptive passengers.
