Development of sovereign sustainment capability is key, so that Defence has the workforce, supply chains and infrastructure to support the future fleet.

The team will manage the RMP-E and work together to plan, manage, execute and assure maintenance for Navy vessels and build resilient local and regional supply chains. RMC-E will contribute to delivery of continuous sustainment of the complex naval capability resulting from Continuous Naval Shipbuilding and ensure Navy responds to changing operational requirements, providing assurance, audit and compliance of contractors and reports on performance, opportunity and risk, in addition to developing industry networks.

- A passion for developing and managing efficient and effective risk management practices and procedures and initiative; and
- Demonstrated ability to assess risks, develop effective mitigation strategies, and troubleshoot issues.

- Able to effectively liaise and converse with stakeholders through verbal and written communication in person and online; and
- Able to work onsite at the Garden Island Defence Precinct.
