- Prepare multi-year capital delivery forecasts and undertake program reforecasting.
- Analyse asset, project and financial data to support investment and planning decisions.
- Prepare executive reports, dashboards and briefing papers for governance and investment forums.
- Facilitate planning workshops and work closely with stakeholders across multiple capital portfolios.
- Drive continuous improvement across capital planning, reporting and scheduling processes.

About You:

- Experience in capital planning, infrastructure planning, asset management or portfolio management.




- Experience developing and managing long-term capital works or investment programs.
- Strong program scheduling, sequencing and dependency management skills.
- Advanced analytical, forecasting and financial modelling capability.
- Experience preparing executive-level reporting and recommendations.
