Build and maintain strong relationships across the Department, schools and external stakeholders
Lead project teams and support effective collaboration
Identify opportunities to improve how we design and deliver initiatives

About you

We are looking for someone who:

Has experience leading projects or programs in a complex environment
Can think ahead, solve problems and deal with changing priorities
Communicates clearly and can work well with senior stakeholders
Is organised and can manage multiple pieces of work at once
Builds strong relationships to get things done
