Director, Planning and Infrastructure Economics, Sydney

Ideating and planning for our cities and their infrastructure needs is complex, as is understanding how they will grow and which projects will enhance community wellbeing and prosperity now, and into the future.

The challenge lies in the need to balance a ‘predict and provide’ approach that addresses immediate infrastructure demands with strategic infrastructure, which has the potential to shape the future and alter demand patterns.

Our Planning & Infrastructure Economics team help plan for our cities now and into the future by developing and prioritising projects which generate sustainable community benefits.

  • Introducing new and maintaining existing local client relationships and building presence in the market at industry events.
  • Providing subject matter expertise internally (locally and globally) and externally in the transport, social and energy markets.
  • Building a cohesive and delivery focused team, with growth and learning as a key focus for your team.
  • Supporting or unlocking our exposure to new or different clients’ sectors and works (we love ideas for where we can grow).

How are you extraordinary?

  • You are considered a specialist in transport, social or energy infrastructure across advisory, economics or strategic planning.
  • Facilitating better community outcomes through enhanced infrastructure planning is a passion and expertise.
  • You are an active a thought leader (or the desire to be) in a range of strategic, technical, and business issues impacting our clients and markets.

Your Experience

At KPMG, we believe diversity of thought, background and experience strengthens relationships and delivers meaningful benefits to our people, our clients, and communities. You will bring to the team your qualifications, skills & experience such as:

  • Leadership experiences in similar consulting, advisory or inhouse roles across transport, social and energy infrastructure projects, locally or globally.
  • A proven confidence to substantially contribute to the successful generation of new work opportunities.
  • Strong numerical, analytical, and strategic thinking skills and demonstrated experience in the economic, financial assessment, investment decisions and strategic planning of infrastructure projects.
  • The ability to build and maintain client relationships and develop a presence at industry networking events.
