- establishing and operating governance and assurance structures for diverse and complex projects, and adapting governance arrangements to suit evolving project requirements
- developing customised delivery timeframes for projects, which are shaped according to project complexity, stakeholder dynamics, and dependencies with other priority projects across government; and
- working with project leads in a project management capacity to manage project reporting and delivery.
- Critically analysing projects and work programs across Law Division to inform the design of business improvements, such as new project tracking and reporting tools, or workflow changes.
- Working with senior leaders, policy divisions and law design teams to monitor and address risks and delivery pressures across the legislation program.
