The NSW Department of Education and Training (DET) has finally begun to advertise for a new CIO on Australian jobs site, SEEK, to replace Stephen Wilson who resigned from the role at the end of June.

The executive who has described himself as Qantas' "quasi-chief information officer" has been promoted out of his role to head up the Australia and New Zealand operations of the airline's JetStar subsidiary.

Movement continues within the CIO ranks as two more organisations advertise for chief information offices, including the federal Department of Health and Aging. The department is this week advertising for a Chief Information and Knowledge Officer to develop “a portfolio-wide framework for capturing, documenting and using information and knowledge”.

Outgoing NSW Department of Education and Training chief information officer, Stephen Wilson, will join the airline as its head of technology, reporting to executive manager of corporate services and technology, David Hall.
