The posting

About us

At Datacom, we combine technology, expertise, and talented people to help organisations thrive in a rapidly changing world. As one of Australasia's leading technology providers, we work with customers across industries to solve real-world problems and deliver meaningful outcomes.

Whether we're supporting governments, enterprise organisations, or growing businesses, we're committed to creating meaningful outcomes for our customers, communities, and each other.

About the role

As a Major Incident Manager, you will lead and coordinate the response to major incidents throughout the full incident lifecycle. Acting as the central point of contact, you will bring together technical teams, service management functions, vendors and key stakeholders to drive timely resolution and effective decision-making.

Alongside managing live incidents, you will strengthen incident management practices through accurate reporting, post-incident reviews, process governance and continuous service improvement. The position does not have direct reports but requires strong cross-functional leadership and the confidence to engage with customers and senior management.

Due to the requirements of our customers, applicants for this role must hold Australian Citizenship

What you’ll do

  • Serve as the primary point of contact during major incidents, providing clear leadership and a structured response.
  • Coordinate technical teams and third-party vendors to minimise service impact and restore services as quickly as possible.
  • Lead incident triage calls, assign actions and track progress through to resolution.
  • Provide clear, consistent and timely updates to customers, senior management, vendors and other key stakeholders.
  • Ensure major incident records are accurate, comprehensive and updated throughout the incident lifecycle.
  • Manage escalations in line with the agreed escalation process.
  • Produce post-incident reports and lead reviews focused on lessons learned and continuous improvement.
  • Maintain governance of the Major Incident Management process and promote compliance across support teams.
  • Work closely with Problem Management, Change Management, Service Desk, Service Delivery and technical teams to support effective handovers and service recovery.
  • Keep incident management playbooks and supporting documentation current and accessible.
  • Participate in the Major Incident Management on-call roster.

What you’ll bring

  • At least three years’ experience within a corporate IT environment, gained in either a business or technical capacity.
  • A minimum of two years’ experience in Major Incident Management.
  • Proven experience leading major incidents in complex, multi-vendor environments.
  • A working understanding of IT architecture across infrastructure and applications.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical information to different audiences.
  • The ability to remain calm under pressure, make rapid decisions and lead cross-functional teams during critical situations.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to quickly assess issues and determine the most effective course of action.
  • Excellent stakeholder and customer relationship management skills.
  • Strong presentation, documentation and report-writing capabilities.
  • A collaborative approach and the ability to work effectively across large, distributed teams.
  • ITIL Foundation certification.

Desirable

  • An Incident Management-specific certification.
  • A bachelor’s degree in Business, IT, Science, Engineering, Economics or a related discipline

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
