What Success Looks Like In This RoleClient Delivery Executive – GovernmentLocation: Canberra – Client Site Role Summary The Client Delivery Executive is responsible for the day‑to‑day delivery, governance, and financial performance of managed services for a government client, with a primary focus on Service Desk operations.

  • Delivery & Service Line Coordination Coordinate with delivery managers and service line leads to ensure services are executed consistently, responsibilities are clear, and delivery activities are not duplicated across teams or business units.
  • P&L & Cost Control Support management of account financial performance, including cost control, margin protection, and visibility of key cost drivers—particularly within Service Desk operations. Identify and escalate risks to margin and support corrective actions.
  • Operational Performance Management Monitor service metrics, risks, and issues, ensuring corrective actions are identified, tracked, and driven to closure.
  • Continuous Improvement Identify and deliver service improvement initiatives, particularly within the Service Desk, to improve stability, efficiency, user experience, and cost effectiveness.
  • Client Communication & Reporting Provide clear, regular operational updates to the client, including service performance reporting, issues, risks, and improvement actions.
  • Ad Hoc Demand & Workflow Management Manage intake, prioritization, and scheduling of ad hoc requests and changes, ensuring delivery and financial impacts are understood and controlled.

You will be successful in this role if you have:

  • Security Clearance: NV2
  • Experience managing Service Desk or IT service delivery in a managed services or government environment
  • Strong understanding of ITSM processes, Service Desk operations, and service performance reporting
  • Experience supporting account governance and financial performance (cost, margin, and risk)
