From developing strategic roadmaps and business cases through to designing complex solutions and leading major bids, you'll play a pivotal role in helping our customers achieve their technology ambitions.
Working closely with Sales, Product, Architecture and Engineering teams, you'll also help shape our future service offerings, strengthen strategic partnerships and position Macquarie Government as a trusted technology partner.
