Work on leading edge projects for Defence engagements

  • Work with purpose delivering critical Defence projects and programs for Australia


 Investment in you
  • L&D, experienced mentors, and accessible leadership

A real endeavour, _achieved with you _**As Australia's multi-disciplinary advisory and business partner of choice for clients in defence, government and infrastructure, we deliver complex things that matter. It's not always an easy task, but anything worthwhile seldom is. Great things are rarely accomplished alone. We're building something remarkable. Now we just need you.

A real endeavour, _shaped by you _**As a
Product Manager, your primary role will ensure efficient management of Product organisational interdependencies, encompassing stakeholder engagement, organisational governance, financial and resource management and risk management.

To succeed in this endeavour, you will:

  • Conduct financial planning and coordinate with various governance committees to meet budget estimates, additional estimates, and bi-annual update submissions.
  • Prepare committee submissions, including Decision and Noting briefs, and engage stakeholders through prebriefs to support informed decisionmaking.
  • Create and maintain Sustainment documentation, including Sustainment Reviews Screens and Biannual Updates.
  • Manage the 'Product on a Page' and maintain the online presence for the product.
  • Develop, maintain, and update Product Delivery Agreements or similar contractual documents.
  • Utilise modelling, scenarios, and data visualisation tools for quantitative analysis, assisting in assessing the feasibility of proposals and informing capability decisionmaking.

A real endeavour, _driven by you _**Our work is highly complex and confidential, so there are some things you must have to fulfil this role:
  • Significant experience in a similar role, preferably within a professional services firm or the Defence industry.
  • Demonstrated expertise in crafting and executing effective Product strategies and plans.
  • Possesses a high level of autonomy, demonstrating the ability to independently handle various aspects of the role, including problemsolving and decisionmaking processes.
  • Strong communication skills, both in written and verbal form.
  • You must hold a current NV1 security clearance or higher.


More than anything, you'll bring a strong work ethic, a positive attitude and a drive to manage critical projects and programs that build sovereign capability and deliver complex things that matter.
