About ArchiTech

ArchiTech is an Australian technology company that delivers IT infrastructure projects for clients around the country. Our work spans networking, security, unified communications, data centre, and cloud. We are straightforward to work with, we own what we do, and we follow through. The team is the kind you actually want to be part of.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a senior Project Manager to join the PMO team on a full-time fixed-term 18 month contract. You can be based in Port Melbourne or Bendigo, with some time on client sites when the work calls for it.

You will run a portfolio of IT infrastructure and networking projects, often several at once. You will own them from scoping through to handover and be the person clients call when something needs sorting. We need someone who keeps things moving, can have a direct conversation when required, and doesn’t need someone looking over their shoulder to do good work.

What you will be doing

- Running IT infrastructure and networking projects from start to finish, across scoping, delivery, and handover
- Keeping projects on time, within scope, and on budget, and picking up risks and variations before they become problems
- Being the main contact for your clients across all project communications, updates, and escalations
- Pulling together internal teams, vendors, and suppliers to get things delivered properly
- Writing project documentation and status reports that are clear and actually helpful
- Tracking project costs, managing invoicing, and keeping billing milestones up to date
- Doing post-project reviews and feeding what you learn back to the PMO and wider business
- Looking after your team on site and keeping health and safety front of mind

What we are looking for

You will need

- 15 or more years of project management experience,



with solid runs on the board in IT infrastructure or networking projects
- Experience in setting up or running a PMO practise – with focus in ensuring PMO team meets the OKRs of up to date documentation, accurate reporting, delivering projects on time & on budget
- Prince2, PMP, or a comparable project management certification
- Experience running several complex projects at the same time without things falling through the cracks
- Good communication skills, enough to manage clients, internal teams, and vendors with confidence and without constant escalation
- Solid working knowledge of Microsoft Office and MS Project; ConnectWise experience is a bonus
- Enough technical awareness to have a sensible conversation with an engineer about networking, security, wireless, unified comms, or data centre environments
- Comfortable working independently and managing your own time across a varied workload
- Australian Citizenship or Permanent Residency with full working rights
- A current driver’s licence and your own vehicle for site visits

It will work in your favour if you have

- Project management experience in a healthcare environment or public sector
- Developed and/or managed PMO practice, responsible for the overall hygiene within the PMO team across reporting, financial metrics & utilisation
- Experience in large / turn-key hospital builds/redevelopment ICT projects
- Worked with Cisco, Fortinet products before, across networking, security, or collaboration
- A background in IT managed services or professional services

Why ArchiTech? We are a team that gets things done and looks after its people. You won’t be micromanaged. You will work with people who know what they are doing, on projects that are interesting enough to keep you engaged.

- Real ownership of your projects, not a support or coordination role
- Based in Port Melbourne or Bendigo, your choice
- Work across a good mix of industries and client types
- The business is growing and there’s room to grow with it
