Is this prospect for you?

To be successful in this role you will have significant experience in the provision of support to large scale, complex IM/ICT programs and projects; specifically,



in planning, initiation, stakeholder management and communication, reporting, budgeting, financial and risk management, and project closure.

Your well-developed negotiation and communication skills will enable you to effectively negotiate and liaise with both internal and external stakeholders regarding the coordination of outputs of multiple specialist teams to deliver the solution as well as the preparation of written communication materials and service agreements.

You will demonstrate extensive experience in applying recognised project and program management methodologies — including Agile, PRINCE2 and related frameworks — along with the ability to provide expert guidance on selecting and using the most appropriate project management techniques for a given context.

You will be confident in running meetings and facilitating discussions, highly organised and able to manage competing priorities, and have strong problem‑solving skills and initiative.

Exposure to agile project management and experience in a Scrum master role is advantageous.
