We are seeking a Portfolio Prioritisation Specialist to join a major Government business change program, contributing to a high-impact initiative that will shape how critical infrastructure investments are planned and delivered.

The Role

Reporting to the Project Manager, this role will support the design and implementation of a Portfolio Prioritisation Framework. You will provide subject matter expertise to strengthen investment planning and decision-making processes across a large infrastructure portfolio.

  • Facilitate workshops, briefings, and consultations with executives and stakeholders to drive adoption and alignment.
  • Develop supporting tools, templates, and documentation to strengthen consistency and transparency.
  • Collaborate with project teams (change managers, business analysts, PMO) to ensure frameworks and processes are embedded effectively.
  • Contribute to improved portfolio governance, assurance, and reporting standards.

About You

  • Strong background in portfolio management, infrastructure planning, or investment prioritisation.
  • Proven experience engaging with senior stakeholders and providing authoritative advice.
  • Demonstrated ability to translate complex frameworks into clear, actionable guidance.
  • Experience in government, infrastructure investment planning, or large-scale transformation programs highly desirable.
  • Qualifications in Asset Management, Project Management, Business, Economics, or related disciplines will be highly regarded.

Outcomes

  • A robust, transparent framework to prioritise funding decisions.
  • Improved maturity of investment planning and decision-making processes.
  • Enhanced capability within the organisation to understand and apply portfolio prioritisation principles.
  • Greater confidence, clarity, and governance in the delivery of strategic objectives.
