Infoblox Recognised As A Great Place To Work In Australia

Scoop3 days ago

Infoblox, a leader in cloud networking and security services, today announced it has been recognised as a Great Place To Work in Australia. This is the first year Infoblox has been included in the under 30 employee 'micro' category in the Information Technology industry.
Developed by global workplace culture consultancy, Great Place To Work, the prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at Infoblox.
Infoblox stood out for its job satisfaction, with 88 per cent of employees recommending it as a great place to work, compared to 60 per cent of employees at a typical company in Australia.
The company was also recognised for its safety in the workplace, with 100 per cent of respondents saying it is a physically safe place to work, where people are treated fairly regardless of their gender or sexual orientation.
Notably, Infoblox employees highlighted that the organisation has great coordination from management and makes new employees feel welcome.
'At Infoblox, our people come first. We pride ourselves on being an equal opportunities employer, and we're especially proud to have received such positive feedback regarding workplace safety,' says Scott Morris, Managing Director at Infoblox for Australia and New Zealand.
'Our purpose is to help customers protect their critical networks and advocate for DDI security. But this is only possible through the incredible talent of our employees and creating a supportive environment where everybody is equal.'
The recognition comes following the opening of Infoblox's new Australian headquarters in Sydney. The new offices include a customer and partner training and collaboration suite, and are located in the heart of the fast-growing North Sydney tech hub. Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work, Sarah Lewis-Kulin, highlighted that the influence of leadership within organisations is more critical than ever in 2025.
'Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience," says Sarah Lewis-Kulin. She emphasises that the certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture.
'By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Infoblox stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees."
The recognition follows Infoblox's recent success sponsoring the Women in Cyber summit which took place in Canberra earlier this year.

Signing of build contract edges closer

After years of delay, the government is finally edging closer to a contract with an Australian construction giant to build the new Dunedin hospital, the ODT understands. Te Whatu Ora Health New Zealand (HNZ) is expected to send CPB Contractors a letter saying it plans to hire the firm to construct the inpatient building. Crown manager Evan Davies' role for the government requires him to negotiate a draft contract and present it to ministers for signing by mid-September. However, there are hurdles that mean the process could take longer, including getting an implementation business case through legally required Treasury approval. The re-employment of former programme director Tony Lloyd in Mr Davies' team raises the likelihood that the proposed contract will have fine print that shares at least some of any overspend risk between government and CPB, rather than HNZ paying a fixed price set in advance. Mr Davies, Mr Lloyd and senior CPB executives are known to have all favoured a shared-risk deal when discussing possible contracts three years ago. Responding on social media to a post by a CPB legal adviser about the problems of fixed-price contracts, Mr Lloyd said he "fully agreed". Fixed-price contracts are usually priced higher to protect the contractor against any rising costs but, depending on construction prices and other variables, are no guarantee that a project's costs will be contained. One independent construction expert — who did not wish to be named — said the type of contract would make little difference to the job's price compared with the cost of the lengthy delays to date. "It will be six of one and half a dozen of the other," they said. However, a shared-risk arrangement could prevent pricey legal pain down the track. CPB and the government have had various scuffles, including time in the High Court over escalating costs of a sports centre build in Christchurch. Meanwhile, the foundations of the inpatient building are likely to get under way. Health Minister Simeon Brown told the ODT that capping of the 324 piles already on the site would start soon, followed by work on the perimeter of the basement to form the base for the substructure. "The third part of the process will be installing the base isolators and then the frame of the main construction," he said. HNZ did not answer a question about the letter of intent to CPB but said that "commercial and delivery arrangements for the inpatient building are continuing to progress.'

Arriving on a jet plane

Of the dozen or more planes which landed at Dunedin Airport on Tuesday, one Jetstar flight was just that little bit more special than the other arrivals. When the Airbuses' wheels hit the Momona tarmac at 2.30pm, Dunedin Airport was once again Dunedin International Airport, as the first of three scheduled weekly flights between here and the Gold Coast reconnected the southern city with Australia, and the world. To say that the flight had been eagerly awaited would be a major understatement. Southern tourism operators, already slammed by the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, have been desperate for an international flight of some description to resume on a route to Dunedin. While tens of thousands of cruise ship passengers make for a busy spring and summer, operators do bring tours to Dunedin in autumn and winter, and some visitors to southern skifields do roam further afield, there is no substitute for a potential 20,000-plus visitors a year landing at your doorstep. Quite apart from the potential tourism spend benefits of the new route for Dunedin, for families who have loved ones on either side of the Tasman, reuniting for important life milestones will now be just that little bit easier. Both they and the business community will welcome not having to book three or four connecting flights to get themselves from Dunedin to points further afield, or having to make a time-consuming drive to Queenstown or Christchurch to fly directly out of the country. The subject of international flights has been an important one for Otago Daily Times readers — it is a regular topic of letters to the editor, and even more so after local teen Benjamin Paterson launched his lobbying campaign for Dunedin to be put back on flight schedules. This was, of course, something which many people in the city had been working on for many months, although the added impetus of the publicity Benjamin gained did those working in the background no harm whatsoever. Many people, from the airport to the council to local politicians to Benjamin Patterson, can claim a moment in the sunshine which that first plane was bathed in when it landed in Dunedin on Tuesday. But in many ways the hard work starts now. As many of our aforementioned readers have noted in their letters, Jetstar is a business, not a charity, and unless people use this new route it will be closed. The expense, let alone the carbon footprint, of transtasman flights will be unjustifiable if the Airbus is full of empty seats. Dunedin's tourism operators already enthusiastically spruik the city and region's virtues to potential overseas visitors. Those efforts, not just in the Australian market but further afield, will now need to be redoubled so as to ensure a steady stream of sightseers to the city. Conference organisers should also be encouraged to put Dunedin back on their schedules, now that it is potentially easier for overseas attendees to make their way South. Inevitably, some have questioned whether Coolangatta is really the prime destination in Australia which southerners wish to travel to. But quite apart from the fact that there is plenty to recommend about its Gold Coast location, Coolangatta is an hour by road from Brisbane and its airport has regular connecting flights to all state capitals, as well as Indonesia, Canada and the United States. That does indeed make Dunedin closer to the world. The welcome mat was well and truly out on Tuesday, and hopefully it will remain so. Takutai Tarsh Kemp The death of Te Pati Māori MP Takutai Tarsh Kemp yesterday was the second time this Parliamentary term that the House has had to adjourn business as MPs mourn one of their own. She was not a prolific contributor in the debating chamber, but the kidney complaint which she quietly managed and which claimed her at the cruelly young age of 50 offers an explanation for that. It is also a reminder, as was the death of Green list MP Fa'anānā Efeso Collins last year, that there is an inequality in life expectancy statistics in New Zealand. Ms Kemp was a campaigner for Māori deprivation to be recognised and addressed, and that will be her political legacy.
