Save the Children
Want to be part of a Technology team that makes a difference? We create and support technology platforms for 1000 employees, 2000 volunteers in 100 locations across Australia and the Pacific positively impacting the lives of children. Supported by a new CIO, you will join the Technology Leadership team with broad accountability across cloud infrastructure, networks, service delivery and end user compute for Save the Children Australia, the Pacific, and our social enterprises.

Save the Children is no ordinary not-for-profit.
We’re ambitious, creative and outspoken. We stand up for children’s rights. We want all children to be educated, healthy and live a life free from violence. We run programs in Australia and ov erseas and, if there’s a disaster – like an earthquake, drought or conflict – we are there on the ground.
Where you come in:
In this full-time, permanent position, based in Carlton*, you will be responsible for managing all infrastructure and networks for Save the Children in Australia and the Pacific. You will be part of our Technology Leadership team and report to our CIO.

Does this sound like you?

This role requires:
