Forensicare (Victorian Institute of Forensic Mental Health)
Fairfield, Melbourne

Remuneration & Details

Classification: HS10
Salary Range: $161,226 + super + salary packaging
Reports to: Executive Director, People & Corporate Services
Direct Reports: 3–6

This is not a “keep the lights on” IT role. This is a strategic leadership opportunity to redefine how digital enables care, safety, and operational excellence across a complex, statewide service.
You’ll sit at the Senior Leadership table, influencing direction, investment and innovation—while building a modern, resilient and future-ready digital environment.

About Us
Forensicare is Victoria’s specialist provider of forensic mental health services, supporting consumers across secure inpatient and community settings.
Our work is complex, high-impact and deeply rewarding—powered by a growing focus on digital capability, innovation and data-informed care.

About the Opportunity
As Head of Digital Services, you will lead the end-to-end digital function—strategy, operations, cyber security, and transformation.

Reporting to the Executive Director, People & Corporate Services, you will:

Set and deliver a multi-year digital and technology roadmap aligned to organisational strategy
Lift cyber maturity and resilience across a highly regulated environment
Drive enterprise-wide digital transformation, embedding modern, technology-enabled ways of working
Lead AI exploration and adoption to improve efficiency and workforce productivity
Partner with clinical and corporate leaders to co-design impactful solutions

You’ll lead a capable team (3–6 direct reports) and shape the evolution of digital services at scale.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

Enterprise digital strategy, governance and investment prioritisation
Technology operations, service reliability and vendor ecosystem management
Cyber security uplift and compliance with government frameworks
Data maturity and governance in secure health environments
Large-scale organisational change and adoption of new technologies
Building a high-performing, future-ready digital team
Influencing executive decision-making with strategic insight and foresight

What You Bring
You are a progressive, enterprise-level digital leader who can balance strategy, execution and influence.

Your experience includes:

10+ years in IT, with 5+ years in senior leadership roles
Leading complex digital transformations in health, government or regulated sectors
Delivering multi-year roadmaps and digital maturity uplift programs
Strong expertise across infrastructure, platforms, cyber security and emerging tech
Experience introducing AI or advanced technologies into operational environments
Proven ability to engage and influence executive and clinical stakeholders
Leading teams through significant change with clarity and purpose

What You’ll Get
To compete with top digital talent, we’re offering a compelling package:

Senior-level influence and visibility across a statewide service
Flexible and hybrid working options
Salary packaging benefits (significantly increase take-home pay)
Strong organisational commitment to innovation and digital uplift
A values-led, supportive culture focused on safety and wellbeing
A chance to do career-defining, purpose-driven work
