We're partnering with a leading Australian organisation looking to bring on a Senior Project Manager on a 12-month fixed term contract, delivering a portfolio of technology projects within an established Agile PMO. A role bridging delivery teams and enterprise governance, making sure outcomes land on time, on budget and aligned to what the business actually needs.
The Chance
- Carry up to five concurrent initiatives, sized from smaller work requests through to large multi-stakeholder projects
- Deliver across genuinely different domains, from infrastructure and cloud through to business application rollouts, service management uplift, platform optimisation and automation requests
- Run agile delivery within PMO standards, owning ceremonies, risk registers, governance and steering committee reporting
- Engage corporate service leadership and business unit heads as a consultative partner, bringing them solutions they buy into rather than decisions handed down
- Manage cross-functional teams and broker alignment between business and technical stakeholders
- Own project budgets end to end, from cost estimation through forecasting, tracking and reporting
- Track progress against KPIs,
milestones and deliverables, and step in early when delivery drifts
- Identify dependencies and resolve resource constraints across competing priorities
- Contribute to continuous improvement of project management practice across the PMO
What We're Looking For
- Seven or more years delivering technology projects, primarily within agile environments
- A track record across varied project types
- Agile certification such as AgilePM, SAFe or PRINCE2 Agile
- Strong financial management, with real ownership of budgets and forecasting
- The presence to hold a room at senior leadership level, and the discipline to produce packs and reporting that stand up to scrutiny
- Confident with project and collaboration tooling such as Jira, Confluence, Azure DevOps or similar, and strong reporting skills
- Grounding in technology delivery, with enough fluency across infrastructure, cloud and applications to work credibly with technical teams
- Experience in structured or regulated environments
- Exposure to GenAI, Copilot or agentic AI rollouts an advantage
