About the role

At Sydney Water, we're delivering one of Australia's largest infrastructure investment programs, with a significant multi-billion-dollar investment over the next decade to support population growth, renew critical assets, strengthen resilience, and improve environmental outcomes.

This is a rare opportunity to work alongside the Executive General Manager (EGM), Infrastructure Delivery, supporting the leadership of a once-in-a-generation infrastructure program that will help shape Greater Sydney for decades to come.

This is not a traditional administrative support role.

As the Executive Assistant to the EGM, Infrastructure Delivery, you will act as a strategic partner who helps maximise the effectiveness of the EGM and leadership team. You will proactively manage priorities, anticipate challenges, coordinate critical business activities, and ensure the EGM's time, focus, and effort are directed toward the most important strategic outcomes.

You will operate at the centre of the Infrastructure Delivery leadership team, providing executive coordination across governance activities, major business priorities, Board and Executive reporting, stakeholder engagement, and leadership team operations.

Working with a high degree of autonomy, judgement and discretion, you will become a trusted extension of the EGM, helping drive alignment, accountability and execution across the Group.
