The advertised role is within the Defence Major Projects Reports (MPR) Team. The MRP is an annual review of Department of Defence major equipment acquisitions, undertaken at the request of the Parliament’s Joint Committee of Public Accounts and Audit (JCPAA) to provide assurance to Parliament on the performance of selected Defence acquisitions. In this role, you will lead a small team that works with the Project Team that manages the acquisitions, to facilitate the preparation of information on the projects’ budget, scope, schedule and progress towards the delivery of required capability.

**About our Team**

The Independent Project and Portfolio Management Office provides independent decision support and assurance functions and consolidated performance assessment and reporting as a service to the Defence enterprise.
