Service Manager – Technology Solutions

Lead, Inspire, and Drive Excellence in IT Service Delivery

About Us

The Catholic Archdiocese of Brisbane positively impacts hundreds of thousands of Queenslanders every week through its 98 parishes, 146 schools, and over 190 service centres, including childcare, aged care, and domestic violence assistance. Our Technology Solutions team plays a critical role in supporting these services, ensuring high-quality IT operations across the Archdiocese.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a team leader who inspires, motivates, and brings out the best in their team. With a focus on fostering a positive and supportive work environment, you’ll play a key role in boosting morale, encouraging collaboration, develop technical proficiency and driving team success.

This role requires both technical leaderships to support and grow the team’s skills and a strategic thinker who can identify and set ambitious challenges that push boundaries. The ideal candidate will not only recognize opportunities for growth and improvement but also inspire others to embrace these challenges.
If you are someone who thrives in an environment where setting challenges is key to success and you can guide others through them, we’d love to hear from you!

• Oversee roster planning and resource allocation to meet customer needs effectively.
• Lead small-scale IT projects that impact client technologies (e.g., organization-wide deployments).
• Provide strategic input on service delivery and champion innovation within the team.
• Take ownership of the client technology stack and ensure it remains fit for purpose and secure.

What We’re Looking For

• 2 or more years of experience leading a service desk team supporting a large user base in a complex IT environment.
• Proven ability to maintain team focus on key performance indicators (KPIs) and other critical delivery goals.
• An appetite to challenge the norm, show initiative, and find better ways to do things while adhering to policies and governance structures.
• Demonstrated ability to empower team members through mentorship, enabling them to develop both technical and soft skills, boost their confidence, and reach their highest potential.
• Exceptional problem-solving skills, including root cause analysis for complex client IT issues.
• Experience leading small projects impacting client technologies (e.g., organization-wide deployments).
• Ability to bring energy, enthusiasm, and a collaborative spirit to foster a workplace that is both productive and enjoyable.

Technical Skills & Qualifications

• Strong experience in M365 administration.
• Strong experience in Genesys call centre application.
• Strong experience managing an SOE and supporting technology.
• Proficiency in analysing ITSM data and implementing service improvements.
• Industry certifications in relevant technologies and IT best practices.

What We Offer

• A dynamic and collaborative work environment where your leadership can make a tangible impact.
• The opportunity to drive innovation and improvement in a large organization.
• Work-life balance with Monday–Friday onsite work, plus some on-call/after-hours requirements (including TOIL).

If you thrive in a fast-paced, challenge-driven environment and can lead, inspire, and elevate those around you, we’d love to hear from you!
