Working at Transurban is different; it's a place where you can see the benefits of your work play out in real life, every day. We create city-sized solutions—building and operating safer, smarter and more sustainable roads—to solve pressing transport challenges that are slowing cities down.

About the role

We're seeking a senior organisational development professional in either Melbourne or Sydney, who has a strong track record in delivering high impact leadership development initiatives tied to strategy and culture ambitions. This role requires deep leadership development expertise combined with an openness and curiosity to exploring possibilities that make sense in Transurban's context.

As a global role, you will have the opportunity to shape the leadership and capability agenda for our workforce across Australia and North America. It's meaningful, challenging and exciting work that supports Transurban's purpose to be the link between people, places and progress.

Day-to-day, you will:

  • Design and deliver leadership development programs and forums to embed leadership expectations and mindsets required for organisational growth.
  • Leverage data to develop insights on workforce capability required to deliver on future strategic and operational outcomes, with considerations including the influence of automation and digitisation.
  • Partner with leaders across the business on developing organisational capabilities and embedding a refreshed purpose and values.
  • Provide thought leadership that combines a deep understanding of leadership and capability research with real world context.

This role will suit someone with a curious mind and transferable skills and experiences, including:

  • Significant experience in developing leaders at both senior and frontline levels through development and delivery of strategic programs and initiatives in large or mid-sized companies.
  • Experience in providing effective strategic insight and input, combined with an understanding of commercial impacts.
  • Experience in leading capability and culture change in a complex organisational system.
  • Preferably, qualifications in organisational psychology or similar, creating the foundation of knowledge and skills in leadership and capability.
  • Impactful influencing and facilitation skills and experience. Thrives in navigating complexity and driving practical solutions.

If you meet some of these requirements, but not all, we encourage you to submit your application.

With a career at Transurban, you'll enjoy a range of benefits, including:

  • A range of flexible working options.
  • 16 weeks paid parental leave (regardless of gender or carer status), with no waiting period, available for the duration of the contract, with superannuation paid during unpaid leave as well.
  • Learning and development opportunities to support your career interests.
  • Health and wellbeing support—access to Fitness Passport, Headspace and our EAP program, wellness facilities, and more.
  • Social activities and groups.

We offer a range of flexible working and leave options, so you can balance your work and life commitments and interests. Have a conversation with us about how this could work for you.

We embrace diversity with a foundation of safety, wellbeing and inclusion; where everyone belongs. We treat everyone with fairness, consideration and respect, regardless of gender, gender identity, marital or family status, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, religious beliefs, cultural or socio-economic background, perspective and experience – whether they work for us or not. We want to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe to express ideas, questions and concerns.

We strongly encourage applications from candidates of diverse backgrounds and lived experiences, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and people living with disability.
