About the Role (Your Why)

Our Customer Centric Managed Services team provides a wide range of technology services to our clients.

You will play a key role in maintaining accurate asset data, ensuring compliance with ITIL best practices, and supporting hardware lifecycle management processes that directly impact service quality.

Our offices are based in Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney. We like to bring people together in person when we can, but we know the benefits of flexibility and remote working for work-life balance. You and your team can choose the balance that works best!
