Our client, a large public sector organisation, is undertaking a significant, multi-year transformation to improve how its $2B annual capital works program is governed and delivered. With a $40B asset base, this is a rare opportunity to influence how critical infrastructure is managed across Queensland.

To support this transformation, they are now seeking an Infrastructure Lifecycle & Governance Specialist to lead improvements in project lifecycle processes and strengthen delivery capability across the infrastructure portfolio.

Key responsibilities include, but aren’t limited to:

• Provide subject matter expertise across project lifecycle frameworks, governance, and assurance

• Contribute to the development and implementation of a standardised Project Lifecycle Framework
• Develop tools, templates, and guidance to improve delivery consistency across programs
• Engage and collaborate with internal teams to embed improved practices across the portfolio
• Support the design and implementation of best-practice infrastructure delivery processes

What we’re looking for:

• Background in infrastructure advisory, capital program uplift, or project governance within government or large public organisations
• Experience in designing and embedding frameworks within a business transformation context
• Strong understanding of Queensland Government methodologies, including the Project Assessment Framework (PAF) and assurance models
• Build rapport and influence stakeholders at all levels – impeccable written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to pragmatically identify root causes and deliver effective solutions
• Hands-on mindset – someone who can “create and do” in a complex, low-maturity environment

Why consider this role?

• Be part of a large-scale, early-phase infrastructure transformation
• Influence meaningful improvement across a $40B public infrastructure portfolio
• 6-month contract based in Brisbane, with potential for extension
• Competitive rate of up to $115.65/hr + super
