Triple Zero Victoria provides the critical link between the Victorian community and the state's emergency services agencies. In 2024-25, Triple Zero Victoria (TZV) answered 3.09 million calls for assistance.

The Executive Director Digital Transformation for TZV's Next Generation CAD program, holds end-to-end accountability for a large-scale, multi-vendor program spanning software, hardware, infrastructure and network delivery - owning scope, schedule, budget, quality, risk and benefits within the DTF High Value High Risk framework.
