We are currently seeking an enthusiastic and committed person to fill the role of Executive Lead - Technology.
Why you will love working at Oxfam
As part of Technology team, you will use your skills, qualifications, lived experience and initiative to tackle inequality and flight poverty. Yes, you read that right, lived experience and initiative, because it is not all about key selection criteria.
Are you re-entering the workforce after a career break? Don't worry! We are looking for people with a fire in their belly and a commitment to ending poverty. As long as you know your subject matter, we can teach you the other stuff and show you what's happened while you were away.
The Role

This newly created role is instrumental in achieving Oxfam Australia’s aspiration around both technology and data analytics while ensuring that valuable data and infrastructure is secure. The role is also critical in driving change in how we organise ourselves into teams from a culture and ways of working perspective.

Oxfam Australia’s data analytics capability is spread across various teams within the organisation and this role will be responsible for supporting, coordinating and building a cross-organisational centre of excellence in data analytics characterised by matrix
structures and accountability to key stakeholders across the organisation.
The role will work closely with key stakeholders/customers like the director of fundraising and resource growth, chief financial officer, risk manager and general counsel and their teams in developing and implementing our data strategy and capabilities.
