An ACT Government agency is seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager to support the delivery of multiple projects within a broader transformation program. The role will operate in a structured PRINCE2 and MSP-based environment and focus on business-led outcomes rather than software delivery.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Prepare and manage PRINCE2 artefacts including project plans, work packages, status reports, change requests, and end-stage reports
  • Oversee all aspects of project delivery including budget, risk, scope, and stakeholder management
  • Work collaboratively with the Program Manager and internal/external stakeholders to ensure project alignment and success
  • Support the delivery of organisational change initiatives and contribute to broader program goals
  • Provide timely communication and clear reporting to senior leaders and project sponsors

Challenges:

  • Managing tight timeframes and complex stakeholder environments
  • Delivering business transformation outcomes in a high-expectation, government-led program

About You:

  • Background delivering projects in government (Commonwealth, State, or Territory)
  • Strong and recent experience in either market approaches for cloud-based technologies; or organisational change
  • High-level written communication skills and attention to detail
  • Ability to navigate ambiguity and drive structured project outcomes
  • PRINCE2 certification highly regarded; relevant tertiary qualifications preferred

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced project professional to join a significant public sector transformation program. Apply now to be part of a collaborative and outcomes-focused team.

Please note, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. If you have any questions, please contact Laura Bartch on [email protected]
