Leading change management activities including communications, stakeholder engagement, training and readiness planning
Coordinating testing activities including system, integration and user acceptance testing where required
Managing vendor relationships and overseeing delivery against contractual obligations
Leading cross-functional delivery teams and providing direction and oversight to project coordinators
Providing delivery advice and guidance to senior stakeholders on risks, sequencing and organisational readiness
Contributing to continuous improvement of project management frameworks, tools and governance practices

About you

Strong financial management capability including project budgeting and forecasting
Experience managing vendors and external delivery partners
Excellent stakeholder engagement skills with the ability to influence and advise senior leaders
Strong analytical, problem-solving and decision-making capability
Proven leadership ability with experience leading cross-functional delivery teams
Relevant project management certification (e.g. PRINCE2, PMP, Agile or equivalent)
