Large-scale cloud migrations don't run themselves — they need a seasoned Program Manager who can turn complexity into momentum.

THE ROLE

Our client is embarking on a major multi-year cloud transition, migrating clients from a legacy platform to a modern cloud-based solution. This is a permanent opportunity based in Melbourne or Sydney, offering the chance to own the master migration program from strategy through to scaled execution.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

- Lead MVP validation with representative legacy clients, partnering with product and engineering to confirm platform fit and identify capability gaps before full-scale rollout
- Design the end-to-end automation strategy covering data conversion, configuration migration, and at-scale client training to eliminate manual effort across client migrations
- Build the migration operating model
- Define technical readiness requirements with engineering, including automation tooling, testing frameworks, and quality gates required before launch
- Establish and run governance structures (steering committees, working groups) and regular cadences to keep product, engineering, onboarding, and client success teams aligned




- Partner with onboarding to design a scaled training and change management program
- Lead client segmentation and sequencing in collaboration with client success, prioritising migrations based on configuration complexity, relationship strength, and commercial profile

WHAT YOU'LL BRING

- Proven experience delivering complex, large-scale technology migration or transformation programs
- Solid background in cloud platform transitions, SaaS migrations, or enterprise system change programs
- Excellent cross-functional stakeholder management and governance design skills
- Experience building migration playbooks, operating models, and automation strategies from scratch
- Comfortable working across product, engineering, commercial, and client-facing teams simultaneously
- Strong communication and program planning skills, with the ability to manage risk and build momentum across a multi-year timeline

NICE TO HAVE

- Experience with scaled client onboarding or change management programs
- Familiarity with data migration tooling and configuration automation approaches
