An established Australian infrastructure organisation is seeking an experienced Senior IT Project Manager to join its technology portfolio on a permanent basis.
This role will take ownership of a significant pipeline of core infrastructure projects spanning server platforms, networks, end-user computing, ServiceNow and supporting operational technologies.
The successful candidate will be a highly capable infrastructure project manager who can work independently with technical and operations teams, establish clear delivery structures and maintain momentum without requiring close supervision.
This is not simply a project coordination position.
You will be expected to take accountability, anticipate problems and actively drive projects through to completion.
The role also offers the prospect to become a senior and trusted member of the portfolio, informally supporting the Portfolio Delivery Manager and stepping into broader leadership responsibilities when required.
The Portfolio
Initial priorities are expected to include:
A Windows Server refresh involving more than 400 servers
UPS and supporting infrastructure renewal
End-user computing initiatives
ServiceNow-related projects
Broader infrastructure lifecycle and refresh programs
Selected cybersecurity initiatives
Key Responsibilities
Deliver multiple infrastructure projects from initiation through completion
Develop and maintain project plans, budgets, schedules and governance
Work directly with infrastructure, operations and security teams
Manage risks, issues, dependencies, vendors and delivery partners
Provide clear reporting and reliable visibility of project performance




Build effective relationships with technical and business stakeholders
Maintain momentum across competing projects and priorities
Guide project team members and contractors where required
Support a proactive and accountable delivery culture
Provide informal portfolio leadership when required
About You
You will have a strong track record delivering technology infrastructure projects and will be comfortable working directly with technical and operational specialists.
Your experience is likely to include several of the following:
Server upgrades, migrations or refresh programs
Network upgrades or transformation
End-user computing
ServiceNow
Data centre or platform infrastructure
You will bring strong project management fundamentals across planning, governance, budgets, risks, dependencies and stakeholder engagement.
Most importantly, you will be proactive, self-sufficient and comfortable taking ownership.
You will know how to create structure, engage the right people and move projects forward without waiting to be told what to do next.
Previous formal people leadership is not essential.
However, experience mentoring others, guiding delivery teams or informally supporting a portfolio or program leader will be highly regarded.
What's on Offer
Broad exposure across enterprise technology infrastructure
Opportunity to operate as an informal 2IC
Ability to influence delivery culture and standards
Remuneration around $200,000 inclusive of superannuation
Additional 10% target short-term incentive
Applications are welcomed from experienced infrastructure project managers across a range of sectors.
Utilities or regulated industry experience will be viewed positively but is not essential.
