About the organisation

VicTrack owns Victoria’s rail land, infrastructure, and related assets, with an $88 billion portfolio. In addition to its ongoing asset custodian role, the organisation is transforming to be a more commercially driven business, pursuing new opportunities from its extensive asset base and strengthening its core role in Victoria’s transport system. With annual revenue at around $150 million and ambitions for significant growth, VicTrack is reshaping how it operates to meet its aspirations for the future.

About the role

Reporting to the Chief Enterprise Services Officer and sitting on the Enterprise Services Senior Leadership Team, you will be VicTrack’s most senior technology leader. You will be accountable for technology, digital capability, data management and cyber security across the internal operating environment, leading a team of approximately 30 spanning strategy and architecture, portfolio and business engagement, program delivery, enterprise applications, digital enablement, and technology operations and security. You will develop an enterprise strategy, a three-year integrated roadmap and costed annual plans, and establish transparent investment and portfolio governance, all while maintaining secure, resilient operations across critical infrastructure and telecommunications assets. You will also lead implementation of the future state operating model, reshape team capability and enable the responsible adoption of automation, data and AI. Key to success will be building business engagement and trust, and translating technology, commercial and risk matters into clear advice that supports investment decisions by the Executive Leadership Team and Board.

About you

You are a highly engaging senior technology executive with substantial experience leading enterprise technology and digital functions in complex, asset intensive, regulated or public purpose environments. Tertiary qualified, you have some direct prior experience in government, while bringing a well-tuned commercial mindset, with experience managing significant budgets, strategic sourcing, major vendor relationships and commercial contracts. You have governed cyber security, operational resilience and risk at enterprise level, and understand the obligations that come with critical infrastructure.
