There's no doubt we are a corporate organisation, but we do it a little differently here.
We're unconventional in many ways - we're fast and considered, we take risks, we question the norms and above all, we've got your back.
If you're after a family of innovative storytellers, walk right in.
We're transforming to make Aussie bigger, better, stronger, and more impactful.
We have a unique opportunity to build delivery capability that provides a differentiated approach to Telco.
Join us as we imagine and design a radically different future, unconstrained by how we do things today.
About the Role
This is a dual impact role for someone who can run projects and own quality.
As a Project Manager - Quality & Testing, you'll lead end-to-end delivery on your own projects while bringing deep testing expertise to programs that need it most.
This is a maximum 24-month term contract - a unique opportunity to make a significant impact during our transformation journey.
You'll own the test strategy, scenario design, defect governance, and go-live readiness and you'll embed what you build into the way every EPMO project runs.
You'll also carry your own PM portfolio, so you know what it takes to make the framework work in the real world, not just on paper.
You're the kind of person who can stand up a test strategy, a scenario tracker, and a quality gate framework from a blank page and then coach other PMs to use them.
Reporting to the Senior Manager, Enterprise Delivery & PMO, you'll be part of a talented team turning strategy into reality through quality, customer-focused delivery and fit-for-purpose governance.
Telco or Utilities sector is strongly preferred as you'll be operating in a complex regulatory and integration environment, and sector familiarity will accelerate your impact from day one.
At Aussie Broadband we believe difference is something to celebrate.
Being advocates for Inclusion and Diversity means our team can bring their whole selves to work and allows us to better represent our customers and the communities that we serve.
As a proud Equal Opportunity Employer, supporting and celebrating difference is just one way that we demonstrate our value of 'Be good to people' everyday.
Join us as we continue to grow and make a mark as the 4th largest telco in Australia!
