Your role

Reporting to the Executive Director Project Delivery, the Director Project Delivery is responsible for leading key projects within the Department's educational infrastructure program.

This hands-on leadership role is responsible for fulfilling significant duties including:

  • acting as a visible leader in Government infrastructure delivery

  • creating a culture of customer service and stakeholder management

  • implementing projects within time and budget parameters to meet stakeholder expectations

This is a 3-year role with a salary range of $188,297 - $256,088, offering impactful and challenging work.

About you

Key to your success in this role will be your:

  • exemplary team leadership with demonstrated experience driving a values-based and positive culture of excellence and collaboration
  • demonstrated financial management, governance, and risk management skills
  • demonstrated business and commercial acumen
  • outstanding customer and stakeholder management skills

Please refer to the Position Description for more information on the required capabilities and qualifications.

This role requires travel to sites using a departmental vehicle; hence a Drivers Licence is a requirement of the role.

How to apply

Please submit a resume and a cover letter (no more than one A4 page). There is no requirement to make a separate statement in response to each of the key selection criteria, however the cover letter should provide an overview of how your knowledge, skills and experience meet the key selection criteria specified in the Position Description.
