  • Present training progress and status briefs at Integrated Project Management Team (IPMT) meetings as required.
  • Collaborate with project schedulers to ensure training milestones are accurately reflected in the Master Schedule.
  • Develop the Training Coordination and Integration Plan in accordance with the Systems Approach to Defence Learning (SADL).

What You'll Bring

  • Strong understanding of the SADL framework, Navy schoolhouse structure, and maritime training pipelines.
  • Project management qualifications or experience leading complex integrated work packages.
  • Familiarity with Aegis and AusCMS training environments highly desirable.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills and stakeholder management ability.

Due to the nature of the work, you are required to currently hold and maintain a minimum Negative Vetting 1 or higher Security clearance as required by the Commonwealth. In some instances, compliance with International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) requirements may also be an inherent requirement.

More than anything, you'll bring a strong work ethic, a positive attitude, and a commitment to delivering high-quality outcomes for our clients.
