Telstra's international division proposed cutting approximately 160 roles, comprising 128 internal positions and 35 contractor roles within its Customer Success team, on April 30, 2026. This restructuring, reported by Information Age citing internal company documents, forms part of a shift towards automation and process redesign, and coincides with the creation of 10 new roles under a five-year partnership with Accenture. Previously, on April 29, Telstra stated it would not seek to prevent rival companies from accessing 2GHz-range spectrum. This spectrum is crucial for providing mobile-to-satellite services (MSS) and fulfilling the federal government’s universal outdoor mobile service bill requirements, with the Australian Communication and Communications Authority (ACMA) yet to determine its allocation. Earlier, on April 28, the company announced plans to upgrade its mobile base station in Inverell to enhance 4G and 5G performance for local users. These works are anticipated to increase the site’s capacity, delivering faster download speeds, smoother streaming, and reduced network congestion as mobile data demand grows.
