In this role, you’ll:

- Lead the safe and effective delivery of road infrastructure projects and maintenance programs across regional NSW, ensuring agreed time, cost, quality and scope requirements are achieved.

- Your experience delivering civil road infrastructure projects and maintenance programs, supported by knowledge of project management, procurement, tendering and contract administration, will enable you to manage complex delivery requirements and competing priorities.
