Additionally, you will be adept at the procurement and management of major contracts, negotiating the best commercial outcomes.

**About the role**:
As the Director of Construction PMO for the Battery of the Nation projects, encompassing the Tarraleah upgrade works, Tarraleah redevelopment, and Cethana Pumped Hydro, your primary responsibility will be to provide high-level project management services. You will ensure effective management, integration, and reporting of project controls throughout the project and program lifecycle. Your role entails establishing and leading the program PMO to oversee various aspects, including Project Management, Scheduling, Cost Estimating and Control, Earned Value Management, Contracts Procurement, Management and Administration, Quality and Assurance Management, Risk Management, Change and Issues Management, and Systems and Data Management.

Additionally, you will collaborate with prospective Engineering Construction Procurement (EPC) Contractors through the Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) process to devise project controls strategies. Managing an integrated team of delivery partners, contractors, and consultants to achieve project and program objectives while being accountable to the Project Directors will be integral to your role.
