Chief Digital Officer

William Confalonieri

William Confalonieri is Chief Digital Officer at Deakin University, Australia. Having a passion for emerging technologies he believes that information technology will change at Deakin significantly over the next few years, with digital perspectives being the enablers and facilitators of that change.

His involvement with information technology began by studying electronics (specialising in computer design) in Argentina. His professional career has been varied, having held positions at the Australian Red Cross Blood Service and the Victorian Government, as well as several strategic information technology roles in South America. Even though this is William’s first role in the education sector, he has been involved for the past few years at McKinnon Secondary College, and currently occupies the position of President. William has also recently been appointed as a member of the Executive Committee for the Australian Access Federation.

William has a blend of public and private sector experience, strong technical and commercial skills, experience in managing large dispersed teams, and a track record of large scale IT transformations.
