Partner with Product Directors, Business Ops, Engineering, Finance, and Risk to maximise customer and financial outcomes.
Drive adoption of experimentation frameworks and next‑generation AI monitoring tools.

Flexible working arrangements with opportunities to work three days in the office, two days remote or home.
Competitive leave policies, including additional 'Connected’ days to focus on culture, family, health, community, or whatever’s important to you.
We support growing families with inclusive, carer-neutral paid Parental Leave of up to 16 weeks.
Direct your own development and build future-ready skills with Optus U’s industry-focused micro-credentials, developed with La Trobe and Macquarie Universities.
Build meaningful connections through employee-led networks and diversity initiatives including Culture Connect, Elevate Women, Disability Network and Express Yourself (LGBTQIA+).
Put your wellbeing first with free access to counselling and support services, 24/7 — in-person, by phone, SMS, or video.
