In total, there are some 30 staff in the wider IT Unit, with employees located in all the USyd-affiliated hospitals, rural schools (Dubbo & Lismore) and research institutes as well as on the Camperdown/Darlington campus.

Because of their high level of experience and technical expertise, our staff are consulted on IT solutions by other sectors of the university.

Management of the entire team is a collaborative enterprise between Chris Liddle (Associate Dean, IT), Robert Pearce (Desktop support), Daniel Burn (Software development), and Paul McInerney (Systems).
