Role Purpose

This is a high-impact role at the centre of Intrax's next phase of growth.

As the Automation Lead, you will drive enterprise-wide improvement by embedding smarter ways of working across the business. You won't just design solutions you will deliver, embed and scale them, using automation, systems and AI as practical enablers.

Reporting directly to the COO, this role sits outside IT and is focused on execution and outcomes. You will operate at the intersection of operations, technology and commercial priorities translating real business problems into solutions that stick. This is a rare opportunity to shape how a growing, national business works at scale, with visibility across leadership and direct influence on performance.

Why This Role Matters

Intrax is entering a period of significant growth and transformation and how we operate needs to evolve with it. This role is central to that shift.

You Will

- Reduce operational friction and inefficiency at scale
- Lift system adoption and simplify how teams get work done
- Enable our people to focus on higher-value, client-facing work
- Drive consistency across a multi-disciplinary, multi-region business

Success will be measured not by ideas, but by what gets delivered, adopted and sustained.

What You'll Do

- Maintain a prioritised pipeline of improvement initiatives, quantifying where manual effort and rework are concentrated and sequencing the work by measurable business outcome
- Own automation delivery end to end - problem definition, scope, build, stabilisation and handover — including dependencies, blockers and momentum




- Translate complex, ambiguous operational challenges into clear requirements and delivery plans that survive contact with a busy business
- Evaluate, integrate, and optimise our ERP and core enterprise platforms, and apply automation and AI-enabled tooling where it earns its place, working alongside our internal developers and external vendors
- Drive adoption and behavioural change so solutions are embedded in day-to-day operations. Success is measured by what stays in use
- Partner with operational leaders and frontline teams across four divisions and five states, simplifying technical concepts into practical actions

What You Bring

- Proven experience delivering transformation, automation or operational improvement at scale
- Strong business analysis capability — structuring ambiguity into clear, actionable problems
- High technical literacy across systems, integrations, data and AI-enabled tools
- Experience influencing senior stakeholders across operations and technology
- Strong commercial judgement balancing speed, risk, cost and value
- A results-driven mindset, focused on outcomes, adoption and measurable impact

What Sets You Apart

- You own outcomes, not just ideas




- You simplify complexity into scalable solutions
- You challenge constructively to lift decisions and delivery
- You understand both systems and how the business actually runs
- You build credibility through execution

What You'll Get At Intrax, we don't just talk about growth — we create the conditions for it. You'll Have

- A high-visibility role with direct access to senior leadership
- The opportunity to shape enterprise-wide improvements and leave a lasting impact
- Ongoing professional development and growth
- Flexible and hybrid working arrangements
- Up to 4 weeks additional purchased leave
- 4 days Wellbeing Leave
- Paid parental leave (12 week's primary, 4 weeks secondary)
- Volunteer leave and wellbeing programs
- Employee Assistance Program
