Technical Services Lead

We’re looking for an experienced Technical Services Lead to join a growing managed services and cyber security environment in Sydney.

This is a senior hands-on technical leadership role for someone who can operate as the technical authority across complex client environments while still remaining close to the technology.

You’ll lead senior engineers, own technical standards, manage complex Level 3 escalations and major incidents, oversee technical projects and work directly with clients across infrastructure, Microsoft cloud and cyber security.

Importantly, this is not a traditional desk-based management role. Approximately half your time will remain hands-on, solving complex engineering problems, with the remainder focused on technical decisions, standards, clients and team leadership.

Key Responsibilities

  • Act as the technical authority across client infrastructure and cloud environments.
  • Own technical standards across Microsoft 365, endpoints, networking and backup environments.
  • Take ownership of complex Level 3 escalations.
  • Lead the technical response to major incidents and security breaches.
  • Build strong technical relationships with key enterprise and multi-site clients.
  • Support solution design, technical scoping, effort estimates and pre-sales activities.
  • Lead infrastructure and cyber security conversations with senior client stakeholders.
  • Review Essential Eight reports and security findings before they are presented to clients.
  • Deliver and oversee projects including Microsoft 365 tenant migrations, SharePoint/OneDrive migrations, network refreshes, site builds and cutovers.
  • Lead, coach and develop Level 3 engineers.

About You

You’ll be a senior infrastructure and cloud engineer who has progressed into technical leadership while remaining genuinely hands-on.

To be successful, you’ll bring:

  • 8+ years’ experience across infrastructure and Microsoft cloud engineering.
  • At least 3 years’ experience leading technical engineers, ideally within an MSP.
  • Strong hands-on experience across Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune and Defender.
  • Strong knowledge of Conditional Access and identity security.
  • Strong networking capability across UniFi, Meraki, FortiGate, VLANs and VPNs.
  • Solid working knowledge of Essential Eight and ISO 27001.
  • Experience leading complex technical escalations and major incidents.
  • Strong technical project delivery experience, including migrations and after-hours cutovers.
  • Confidence presenting technical and cyber security matters to senior client stakeholders and executives.
  • Experience contributing to solution design, technical scoping and effort estimation.
  • Experience using AI and automation tools in day-to-day engineering.
  • Full Australian working rights and a current driver’s licence.

Experience with Azure, PowerShell or Python, HaloPSA, NinjaOne or managing offshore technical teams will also be highly regarded.

The Opportunity

This is a great opportunity for a technically strong leader who wants genuine ownership across cloud, infrastructure, cyber security, engineering standards and client solutions without moving away from hands-on technical work.

You’ll have the opportunity to shape technical standards, develop senior engineers and influence how technology and cyber security solutions are delivered across a diverse client environment.

Join a major digital transformation initiative focused on improving complex operational planning and scheduling.

The role sits within a small, highly collaborative product team developing an AI-enabled decision-support platform that combines operational data, mathematical optimisation and agentic AI.

Must-have experience:
* AWS Bedrock and AgentCore
* Strong data modelling experience
* Python / software engineering capability
* Experience building enterprise AI solutions
* Ability to work across data, optimisation and application engineering

Experience in optimisation, scheduling, industrial environments, mining/resources or other complex operational settings would be highly regarded.

Chief Information Officer

  • Australia
  • Adelaide
  • Permanent
  • Negotiable

Chief Digital & Information Officer – Department of Human Services (DHS)

Executive leadership | Enterprise transformation | Digital, Data, Technology & Cyber

This is not simply a technology leadership role.

We are partnering with a major South Australian Government department, Department of Human Services (DHS), to appoint a Chief Digital & Information Officer (CDIO) who will help shape how the organisation operates, transforms and delivers services into the future.

Reporting directly to the Chief Financial Officer, the CDIO will lead a broad Digital, Data and Technology function, while operating as an influential member of DHS’s broader executive leadership group.

The successful candidate does not need to be the most technical person in the room.

They do, however, need to know how to set direction, lead people, influence executives, prioritise investment and translate technology into better organisational outcomes.

The opportunity

Department of Human Services (DHS) operates in a large, complex and highly stakeholder-driven environment supporting important services across South Australia.

With significant transformation ahead, the CDIO will provide enterprise-wide leadership across digital, data, technology, cybersecurity, architecture and emerging technologies.

Importantly, this role is about understanding the organisation before trying to change it.

You will build strong relationships across the executive, understand operational and service priorities, assess where investment will create the greatest value and establish a clear direction for the technology function.

You will lead senior functions across:

ICT Applications, Digital Solutions, Information Security & Cyber Risk, Technology Governance & Assurance, ICT Operations, Data Analytics & Reporting

What will be on your agenda?

  • Enterprise transformation – modernise services, platforms and ways of working.
  • AI & emerging technology – identify where new technology can deliver genuine organisational value.
  • Cybersecurity & risk – strengthen security, resilience and service continuity.
  • Enterprise architecture – ensure technology investment supports long-term business strategy.
  • Platforms & digital capability – provide strategic oversight across key platforms including Dynamics and Salesforce.
  • Investment & commercial management – prioritise technology investment, manage rising costs and maximise value.

Leadership will be critical

This is a significant people leadership role.

You will inherit a large, highly diverse and multicultural technology workforce comprising specialist teams with different disciplines, priorities and perspectives.

Success will require someone who can bring people together around a common direction, empower their senior leaders and create strong relationships across both technology and the broader organisation.

You will be expected to operate as an enterprise executive who leads technology – not a technology executive operating in a silo.

About you

We are interested in speaking with established executive leaders who have operated in complex organisations.

Your experience may have been developed across government, large enterprise, highly regulated industries or similarly complex stakeholder environments.

You will have sufficient technology depth to challenge, guide and support specialist leaders, but your greatest strength will be your ability to connect people, strategy, investment and technology.

Why this role?

Few technology leadership positions provide this breadth.

You will influence enterprise transformation, AI, data, cybersecurity, architecture, major platforms, investment and organisational strategy while helping shape services that have a genuine impact across South Australia.

For an executive who enjoys complexity, transformation, people leadership and working closely with senior decision-makers, this represents an opportunity to lead at an enterprise level rather than simply manage a technology function.

Senior Technical Business Analyst - Investment Technology

  • Australia
  • Melbourne
  • Permanent
  • Negotiable

AVEC is a niche, delivery-first technology consultancy combining specialist expertise with scale that has been recognised as a “Great Place To Work” for the last 3 years. For our people, that means enterprise-scale projects without big-firm bureaucracy, direct access to experienced leaders, genuine ownership of outcomes and the opportunity to build deep specialist capability.

The Role

We are looking for a Senior Technical Business Analyst specialising in Investment Data and Investment Technology to work within an established team embedded in a sophisticated institutional investment environment.

  • Melbourne CBD Location | Hybrid Working Arrangements

This is a hands-on technical BA position that sits between investment teams, data specialists, architects and engineers. We need someone who can understand an investment problem, interrogate the underlying data and systems, define how information needs to move between platforms, and translate that into requirements an engineering team can build from.

You will interrogate data, define mappings and business rules, analyse integrations and APIs, trace data from source to consumption and translate complex investment requirements into specifications that architects and engineers can build from.

A formal approach to business analysis underpinned by CBAP, CBDA, Agile/Scrum or SAFe qualifications is required. Investment qualifications such as CFA Institute programs would be advantageous.

What We Are Looking For

We are specifically seeking someone who has developed their career within institutional investment management, superannuation, wealth management, asset management or investment banking technology, and understands how investment data is created, enriched, transformed, reconciled and consumed.

You will bring a strong combination of:

  • Deep knowledge of investment data and investment processes, ideally spanning portfolio/position data, Security Master, IBOR/ABOR, performance and attribution, investment risk, compliance, investment operations or regulatory reporting.
  • Strong hands-on SQL and data analysis capability, including data profiling, mapping, reconciliation, data quality and lineage.
  • Experience defining REST APIs, system interfaces, integration requirements, data flows and technical specifications.
  • Understanding of conceptual, logical and physical data models and the ability to work directly with complex investment datasets.
  • Exposure to modern investment-data environments using technologies such as Databricks, AWS, Azure, Power BI and Python.
  • Experience working directly with Product Owners, investment SMEs, architects, engineers and testing teams within Agile delivery.
  • The ability to own a problem through delivery rather than handing requirements over once documentation is complete.

Why You Will Be Suitable

You will recognise yourself in this role if you can move comfortably between an investment conversation and a technical one. You understand the meaning of the data as well as its structure, lineage and movement between systems.

You may have previously delivered solutions involving whole-of-portfolio or positional data, private-market look-through, investment performance and attribution, investment compliance, regulatory reporting, data interfaces or investment-data APIs. These are strong examples of the type of practical experience relevant to the role.

You should be comfortable opening a dataset or writing SQL to investigate an issue, tracing why positions or performance data do not reconcile, working through an API or interface specification with an engineer, and then explaining the business implications clearly to an investment stakeholder.

Why AVEC?

AVEC provides the opportunity to work on complex investment technology and data problems where specialist domain knowledge matters. You will work alongside experienced consultants and client teams, with the scope to influence solutions rather than simply document them.

If you are a Senior Technical BA with deep investment data experience and enjoy operating at the intersection of investments, data and technology, we’d like to hear from you.
