• Experience working in Defence or secure environments, with a solid understanding of Configuration Management Systems and CMDB tools.
• Strong stakeholder engagement and customer service focus, with proven ability to build effective relationships and communicate clearly across all levels.
• Proficiency in ITSM tools (e.g. ServiceNow, Remedy), Agile delivery platforms (e.g. Jira, Confluence), and productivity tools (e.g. MS Office, Teams).
• Self-motivated, adaptable team player with strong organisational skills, able to manage multiple priorities, risks, and dependencies in a dynamic environment.

Don’t worry if you don’t tick all the boxes – if you meet most of them, we encourage you to submit your application. We’re most interested in your strengths, what you want to learn and how far you want to go.
This role does require the successful applicant to be an Australian Citizen and hold NV-1 security clearance.
