Demonstrated success delivering major network infrastructure projects, technology upgrades and transformation initiatives that improve performance, resilience and security.
Proven ability to provide expert technical leadership, resolve complex connectivity challenges and act as a trusted advisor to technical and business stakeholders.
Strong experience developing network architecture, security controls, technical standards and governance frameworks that support reliable and secure operations.
Relevant tertiary qualifications in Information Technology, Network Engineering or a related discipline, together with industry-recognised certifications.
