• Engage closely with internal business leaders, stream leads, and central procurement/IT teams
• Prepare governance board briefings, business cases, funding requests, and executive updates

• Excellent stakeholder engagement skills, able to influence at executive and stream lead level
• Confidence preparing and presenting board-level documentation and reporting
• Familiarity with Queensland Government procurement, governance, and compliance frameworks
