Senior Project Manager

This is: the job

We're looking for a Senior Project Manager to step into a highly visible transformation program and lead the delivery of two critical streams of work that will help solve long-standing business challenges.

This role requires an experienced delivery leader who can navigate complexity, build alignment across a large stakeholder group, and drive outcomes in an environment focused on execution rather than bureaucracy. You'll partner closely with senior leadership, act as a trusted second-in-command, and bring structure, accountability, and momentum to a program that will shape the organisation for years to come.

Based in Melbourne, this initial 6-month contract will suit someone who thrives in challenging environments, enjoys leading through ambiguity, and has the credibility to influence stakeholders at every level.

This is: what you'll do

• Lead the end-to-end delivery of key transformation initiatives
• Drive program outcomes across a large and complex stakeholder landscape
• Manage engagement and alignment across more than 80 stakeholders
• Deliver strategic data-related initiatives focused on quality and consistency
• Oversee the planning and execution of a new testing strategy and environment roadmap
• Collaborate closely with senior leadership to remove roadblocks and accelerate delivery
• Establish clear governance, accountability, and delivery discipline
• Manage risks, dependencies, and competing priorities across multiple workstreams
• Drive teams towards agreed outcomes while maintaining strong stakeholder relationships
• Support long-term transformation objectives through practical and effective execution

This is: what you'll need

• Extensive experience as a Senior Project Manager delivering complex enterprise programs
• Proven ability to lead large-scale business and technology transformation initiatives
• Strong stakeholder management skills across executive, operational, and delivery teams
• Experience delivering data-related projects, including data quality and governance initiatives
• Exposure to ERP environments and end-to-end enterprise platforms
• Experience establishing or improving testing strategies and delivery frameworks
• Strong leadership presence with the ability to influence, challenge, and drive accountability
• High levels of integrity, resilience, and commercial judgement
• Ability to thrive in complex environments with significant organisational change

This is: the perks

• Lead a transformation program tackling long-standing business challenges
• Work directly alongside senior leadership with significant visibility and influence
• Shape foundational data and testing capabilities with long-term organisational impact
• Join a motivated team committed to solving complex problems and delivering outcomes
