Why Work in SA Water’s Technology Team?

Our Technology team is passionate about making a meaningful impact on the community by shaping the future of water services. We work across both IT and OT, fostering innovation, collaboration, and creativity to deliver trusted, sustainable water solutions for South Australia.

We value and invest in our people and we have inclusive and supportive culture where everyone feels empowered and part of something bigger. As a senior leader in our team, you will inspire and guide others on impactful projects, while nurturing talent, encouraging growth, and celebrating success. This is more than just a job – it’s an opportunity to be part of a team that makes a real difference to the community we serve.

  • Lead the development and implementation of cyber security strategies, policies, and risk management processes, ensuring alignment with organisational goals and regulatory requirements.
