The Critical Situation Manager plays a pivotal role in ensuring the resilience and continuity of telecommunications services during high-impact events.

  • Acting as the Incident Commander during major events, leading management bridges and coordinating real-time response efforts.
  • Monitoring incident progression, escalating as needed, and aligning response with regulatory and customer obligations.
  • Maintaining detailed incident logs and documenting actions taken accurately.
  • Coordinating with network operations, field services, IT, customer service, and external vendors to ensure unified response.
  • Serving as the central point of contact for all teams during critical incidents.
  • Facilitating decision-making under pressure and aligning resource allocation with incident priorities.
  • Producing real-time incident reports, executive summaries, and post-incident reviews.
  • Maintaining and updating process documentation, playbooks, and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
  • Leading lessons learned sessions post-incident to identify root causes and improvement opportunities.
  • Driving implementation of corrective actions and process enhancements.

What you'll bring:

As the successful candidate, you will have a strong background in Technology Leadership with demonstrated 10+ years' experience working in a Telecommunications environment.

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills involving managing stakeholders at all levels.
  • Excellent consultation skills interfacing with Technical and Business stakeholders, and leaders across the Technology organisation.
  • 10+ experience managing a combination of Technology functions i.e., IT, Infrastructure, and Networks in a large Enterprise organisation, preferably in a Telecommunications environment.
  • Experience in managing Critical Incidents.
  • Able to smoothly navigate in a matrixed organisation, seeking consensus and buy-in, and holding others accountable.
  • Excellent time and expectations management.
  • Excellent in identifying and managing Technology risks impacting Business outcomes,
  • Ability to work in a 24/7 on-call during high-risk periods

What's in it for you?

  • Flexible hybrid way of working (from home and office)
  • 'Stay Connected Mobile' – Access to a free mobile plan
  • 'Stay Connected NBN' – Access to a free NBN 100 plan
  • 'Your Leave' - an additional 4 days of leave to be used whenever you like - every year
