The strong heritage and history of the region combined with social and economic growth is redefining the way in which the region operates, how the community is connected and repositioning the city nationally. The city of Ipswich is embracing change, adapting to growth and is striving to be an inclusive city with opportunities for all. The Ipswich City Council (ICC) five year vision is focussed on Ipswich city to be vibrant and continue growing; to be natural and sustainable; to be a city which is safe, inclusive and creative and to be a trusted and leading organisation.

As a senior member of this branch, you will support the enhancement of the quality of life for the Ipswich community and as a key leader, work constructively with ICT team members and more broadly across the ICC. Making this opportunity even more attractive is location, a new modern building and attractive renumeration.

Your role is primarily focussed on managing the comprehensive server, storage and enterprise infrastructure supporting services for the Councils Corporate Information System software applications and services as directed.
