    • Sydney CBD (Kent Street)
    • Hybrid · Permanent, full-time
    • Portfolio leadership, partnering peer-to-peer with the business

    icare is delivering technology that supports the people of NSW when it matters most. This role owns technology delivery end-to-end across one of three scheme-aligned portfolios, partnering as a peer with business leaders in a "2-in-the-box" model.

    About the role
    You'll lead all technology delivery across your portfolio - translating business strategy into roadmaps and executable plans, then driving them through to scalable, secure and sustainable outcomes.
    You sit beside the business as an equal, not behind it: shaping priorities, advising on architecture and trade-offs and holding the line on engineering quality across every initiative.
    It's a seat for someone who has run delivery at this scale before and knows that the hard part is rarely the technology - it's the alignment, the governance and the judgement calls.

    The scope
    • One of three scheme-aligned portfolios, owned end-to-end
    • Up to 6 direct reports, with cross-functional squads beneath them
    • A "2-in-the-box" partnership with a scheme or enabling-function business lead
    • Full accountability for delivery performance, technical quality and roadmap

    What you'll do
    • Partner with your business lead to shape, prioritise and deliver the technology that matters most to those we serve
    • Translate strategy and operational need into delivery roadmaps, solution approaches and executable plans
    • Act as the primary technology advisor across your portfolio - architecture, solution options, risk, dependencies and trade-offs
    • Lead and coordinate cross-functional squads to deliver across initiatives and operational change
    • Own delivery performance end-to-end: solution quality, stability, scalability, resilience and non-functional requirements
    • Drive engineering standards and architectural principles so quality holds across every solution
    • Mentor delivery teams and squad leaders to lift capability, delivery maturity and engineering excellence
    • Contribute to technology investment planning and portfolio roadmap development

    What you'll bring
    • 10+ years in technology delivery, engineering leadership or transformation within enterprise environments, including large-scale portfolio delivery
    • A track record partnering with senior business stakeholders to turn strategy into roadmaps, solutions and measurable outcomes
    • Deep understanding of enterprise architecture, platforms and integration, gained in environments with established security and governance frameworks
    • Stakeholder engagement and influencing skills strong enough to make you a trusted advisor at executive level
    • Proven leadership developing teams and driving delivery maturity and engineering excellence

    What's in it for you
    • A corporate wellbeing program with subsidised gym membership, free flu vaccinations and health checks
    • An extra day's leave through icare day
    • Learning and development aligned to icare's Core Capabilities
    • Recognition through Our People Awards - on-the-spot, quarterly and annual
    • Access to our Employee Assistance Program
