  • Engage with digital and business leaders in all APS agencies, particularly with central government agencies such as Prime Minister and Cabinet, Finance, and Treasury, as well as major service delivery agencies responsible for large digital transformation projects.
  • Ensure maximum value and minimal risk outcomes in deciding upon and delivering digital investments through contestability and assurance oversight.
  • Provide leadership, direction, and oversight to scrutinize proposals and assess the quality of business cases, understanding the rationale for the proposed scope, timing, and cost.
  • Collaborate with agencies and other stakeholders to address emerging issues related to meeting delivery milestones, outcomes, and compliance with approved project funding conditions.
  • The ability to engender enthusiasm and professionalism in others and contribute to shaping a positive workplace culture.
  • Proactive approach to professional and organisational development, including talent development, succession planning, and driving APS capability uplift.
