Cloud Operations Manager

Better and fairer care.  Always. 

St Vincent's has been a leader in Australia's health and aged care landscape for more than 165 years. Since our founders, the Sisters of Charity, opened our first hospital in 1857, our services and nearly 30,000 people have been behind some of Australia's most important medical breakthroughs. We are a microcosm of Australia’s health and aged care system and are uniquely positioned to lead and respond to our rapidly changing environment. 

We are looking for a special kind of person - a St Vincent’s kind of person. Someone who puts excellence, compassion, connection and caring for other people at the heart of everything they do.   

We are seeking a Cloud Operations Manager to provide senior technical leadership and operational ownership of our enterprise cloud and hybrid platforms, supporting Tier 0 systems that underpin clinical, aged care and research services across Australia. 

This is a handson leadership role combining deep technical expertise in Microsoft Azure with people leadership, operational excellence and continuous improvement.
