Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Seven Consulting Full time

Short Description

Are you the kind of leader who turns a roomful of specialists into one high-performing team, tells the brutal truth early, and still lands the plane on time and on budget? Join Seven Consulting as a full-time Program Director and put our core values—teamwork, transparency, delivery—into practice on Australia's most complex, blue-chip programs.

Why This Role Matters

  • Teamwork: Rally client and consulting talent around a single, shared plan.
  • Transparency: Surface risks before they bite—no spin, no sugar-coating.
  • Delivery: Finish what others start—our stats speak for themselves: 99.31 %client satisfaction, 98.60% team satisfaction.

About Seven Consulting

Since 2002, Seven Consulting has delivered $1 M–$1.4 Bn technology-enabled transformations with one guiding principle: projects succeed when teams, reporting and outcomes stay painfully clear. We're proudly private, fiercely independent, and laser-focused on getting the job done—together.

Your Mission

  • Own the program end-to-end. Lead $50 M–$200 M+ initiatives to the finish line—on time, on budget, on quality.
  • Forge one integrated team. Align client execs, vendors and delivery specialists around a transparent roadmap and shared KPIs.
  • Make the status crystal-clear. Implement rigorous controls, real-time dashboards and plain-English reporting so no one is ever surprised.
  • Shape the delivery playbook. Collaborate with our senior PMO community to improve methods and mentor rising talent.
  • Switch gears with ease. Blend waterfall, agile and hybrid techniques to suit each challenge—because dogma doesn't deliver.
  • Stay cool under fire. Big programs get bumpy; your resilience keeps the team steady and the schedule intact.

What You Bring

  • A track record of multiple $50 M–$200 M+ successes for tier-one clients.
  • Natural team-builder: you've led 40+ people and they'd follow you again tomorrow.
  • Reference-ready reputation for integrity and straight talk.
  • Mastery of waterfall, agile and hybrid delivery (certs welcome but mindset matters more).
  • High-octane energy and strategic presence that lift the room.

What We Offer

  • Teamwork culture: mentoring, peer reviews, collaborative problem-solving—no silo heroes.
  • Delivery rewards: paid overtime, and public recognition for outstanding outcomes.
  • Job security plus genuine support during personal hardships.
  • Community impact through our Project 7 charity initiative.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

We believe diverse teams deliver better outcomes. All qualified applicants—regardless of background—are encouraged to apply.
