Senior Manager, Technology Project Delivery (Temporary Opportunity - Up to 6 months) (Sydney)

You may have been part of some big projects before, but this work is legacy-building.

Your innovative mindset is key to creating solutions to complex problems. Our systems drive our organisational success and underpin every journey our customers take. This is your opportunity to be part of an expert team who build and refine seamless technology experiences.

In this role, you'll:

Lead a small, capable team and guide a diverse portfolio of technology projects, shaping how technology project delivery operates across the organisation. You’ll streamline delivery processes, strengthen governance, and ensure clear visibility of risks, issues, financials, commercial impacts and reporting into IT governance forums and steering committees.

As the Senior Manager Technology Project Delivery, you’ll be the central point of guidance across multiple concurrent projects, making sure they align with delivery frameworks, stakeholder needs and organisational priorities. You’ll also lead the Project Management Community of Practice, supporting senior and emerging project managers and embedding a consistent, mature approach to technology delivery.

Your leadership will balance strategic direction with hands-on support. You’ll work closely with product leaders and the PMO to match capacity with demand, strengthen delivery standards and guide projects from early shaping through to completion. That includes proposals, business cases, specifications, contracts, budgets, vendor coordination, stakeholder and risk management all while driving continuous improvement in how projects are planned and delivered.





This is a fixed term full time opportunity up to 30 June 2026, based at our George Street office in the CBD.

About you

You’re someone who thrives in a role that mixes people leadership, delivery oversight, and building fit-for-purpose project governance. You’ve likely done this before either in a similar senior project delivery role or as a program manager overseeing a portfolio of complex IT, infrastructure or data projects. You’re comfortable juggling multiple streams of work, stepping in where needed, and keeping everything aligned, transparent, and moving.

You have solid experience setting up and streamlining project delivery approaches to put structure and visibility around risks, issues, financials, commercial considerations, and governance. You don’t just follow the framework; you help shape it and make it work in practice.

You’re calm with complexity, confident with stakeholders, and quick to adapt. You communicate well across teams, vendors, partners, and leadership groups, and you understand how large technology projects,



particularly in construction or asset-centric settings function and interconnect with broader organisational priorities.

You’ll also bring relevant tertiary qualifications or equivalent professional experience.
