The Opportunity:
We're looking for a capable and pragmatic Project Manager to lead a key piece of work focused on uplift of environment and release management capability within a complex enterprise technology landscape.
 
The organisation is transitioning from a legacy single-application environment to a modern multi-SaaS ecosystem, and this role will play a critical part in establishing scalable delivery patterns, frameworks and operating practices to support future enterprise-wide implementation.

  • Support development of scalable frameworks and delivery practices for enterprise release and deployment capability
  • Manage proof-of-concept activities and readiness planning
  • Translate complex technical concepts into clear executive and business-facing communication
  • Provide confidence and visibility to senior leadership on progress, risks and delivery outcomes
About You:
You'll be a strong Project Manager first and foremost, with excellent structure, stakeholder management and delivery discipline.
We're particularly interested in people who bring:
  • Demonstrated Project Management experience delivering complex technology or transformation initiatives
  • Experience working across enterprise application, platform or integration delivery environments
  • Strong planning, governance and cross-functional coordination capability
  • Ability to manage competing priorities in fast-paced delivery environments
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to engage technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience contributing to capability uplift, operating model change or delivery practice improvement highly regarded
While not essential, exposure to any of the below would be advantageous:
  • Environment Management / Release Management delivery
  • SaaS ecosystem or enterprise platform transformation programs
  • Enterprise integration or multi-system implementation environments
  • Vendor and procurement engagement
