Be part of a revitalised, member-led union and help maintain the systems that power it!

We are seeking a Head of IT Operations to join the CPSU SPSF Group Victorian Branch during an exciting period of renewal and re-energisation. This full-time, fixed-term position (VPS Grade 5 equivalent) is a six-month engagement back-filling the substantive role-holder's extended leave.

As Head of IT Operations, you will lead the end-to-end operational management, reliability, security, and continuous improvement of the Branch's information technology environment. You'll ensure that all core systems — infrastructure, cloud services, applications, websites, and our case-tracking and membership systems — are secure, resilient, compliant, and fit-for-purpose, so that technology effectively supports the union's industrial, organising, campaigning, and governance work.

Your work will include overseeing IT service reliability and incident management, maintaining mission-critical infrastructure and core systems, managing vendors and service providers, and driving continuous improvement. You will also act as the organisation's Privacy Officer, with accountability for data protection, privacy compliance, and cyber security incident response across all systems.

This is a hands-on leadership role within an activist, democratic union committed to empowering members and fighting tirelessly for their interests.

Note that if you are one of our members and currently working in the VPS, or at another employer for which we are the union, we are prepared to offer this position as an a secondment, which would enable you to keep your substantive position.
