Are you Hamilton City Council's next Platform Manager – Experience?
We are seeking a strategic leader to spearhead the transformation of our Digital Workplace/Intranet, Customer and Employee Self Service and Artificial Intelligence platforms. Our goal is to leverage the power of modern technologies, such as automation and generative AI to improve productivity and enhance our employee and customer experiences. This role presents the opportunity to play a pivotal role in a major transformation.
What will I be a part of?
You'll join our Digital Services team that is focused on enabling Hamilton City Council through digital means to achieve our goals, long-term vision, and the needs of our community.
Joining our team of platform and digital product experts, you will be responsible for overseeing the development, delivery, and continuous improvement of our experience platform services so that they meet changing business requirements. You'll collaborate with other platform managers, product owners, digital analysts, and stakeholders to define and execute the platform strategy and roadmap.
This job is for you if you:
Lead with empathy, curiosity, a sense of ownership, and of course, a sense of humour. You'll bring your team along on the journey understanding the impact of a strong team culture and camaraderie on success.
Are a seasoned professional with a robust background in managing and developing modern digital workplaces and enabling self-service across a large complex environment.
Have experience in managing significant projects that drive organisational change and enhance operational efficiency.
Have led successful initiatives aimed at improving customer engagement and experiences with online web platforms and e-commerce services.

Have exceptional interpersonal skills, as you will engage effectively with stakeholders at all levels of the business internally and be responsible for managing close partnerships with our vendors.
Can demonstrate knowledge of SharePoint, Power Automate, Co-Pilot and other Microsoft technologies and how to leverage the platforms capabilities to increase productivity and improve user experiences.
What is the salary, and can I work flexibly?
Circa $125K dependent on skills and experience.

Thereafter we support flexible working for our team with a hybrid approach.
