**The Role**
As an EL 1 Engineering Manager for Joint Project 9101 Phase 1 (JNT9101 PH1), you will play a critical role in managing complex engineering and project activities within Defence’s Strategic High-frequency Communications (SHFC) program. You will provide expert engineering advice, implement technical governance, and oversee engineering processes to ensure compliance with regulatory frameworks and Defence policies. Leading a team of engineers, you will drive capability outcomes through stakeholder engagement, risk management, and the integration of engineering solutions across the capability lifecycle.
Key responsibilities include:
- Leading and managing engineering teams, ensuring performance and capability development.
- Overseeing engineering governance, risk management, and compliance activities.
- Collaborating with internal and external stakeholders to drive project success.
This role requires strong leadership, technical expertise, and an ability to navigate complex engineering and project challenges while ensuring Defence capability outcomes are met.
This role is eligible for an additional remuneration benefit known in Defence as a Building Defence Capability Payment (BDCP). This enables Defence to provide a premium, in addition to the base salary otherwise payable under the Defence Enterprise Agreement (DEA), for positions in occupational disciplines/classifications that are critical to Defence capability. For further information, please contact the contact officer.
**About our Team**
The Joint Project 9101 Phase 01 (JNT9101 PH1) Team delivers critical communications capabilities to the Australian Defence Force (ADF), combining procurement, sustainment, and innovation to support operational readiness. The team operates collaboratively across Defence and industry, ensuring alignment with the Capability Manager’s objectives and broader organisational goals.
With a focus on achieving outcomes specified in Materiel Acquisition Agreements, the team ensures delivery within defined budgets, schedules, and performance standards. Employing best practice project management and governance frameworks, the JNT9101 PH1 Team prioritises efficiency, effectiveness, and value for money while meeting contractual and policy obligations.

By maintaining strong partnerships with Defence customers, Capability Acquisition & Sustainment Group (CASG) elements, and industry stakeholders, the JNT9101 PH1 Team ensures seamless delivery of enhanced HF capabilities that meet Defence requirements, support mission success, and drive continuous improvement.
You will be a proactive leader who fosters a high-performing and collaborative team environment. Your strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to navigate complex technical and regulatory landscapes will set you apart. Experience in high-frequency communications, systems engineering, or Defence capability projects is highly desirable. If you thrive in a challenging environment and have a passion for delivering high-quality engineering solutions, we encourage you to apply.
