Full Job Description

At Centorrino Technologies (CT), we’re more than just tech—we’re a community that goes beyond expectations. We’ve been recognised as a Great Place to Work in 2024-2025 and one of the Best Places to Work Medium Size in Australia for 2024, with an outstanding eNPS score of 68. And we’re not stopping there.

We are seeking an experienced Senior Risk Management Project Officer to support a complex ICT program within a secure government environment. This role is responsible for leading and coordinating risk, issue, and benefits management activities across multiple program lifecycle stages, including acquisition, sustainment, and transition into operational service. Working within a dynamic stakeholder environment, you will provide strategic risk analysis, governance support, and assurance activities to enable informed decision-making and successful program outcomes. This role is a 12-month fixed term contract based in Canberra.

Requirements

What You’ll Do

Maintain and enhance risk, issue, and benefits registers across the full ICT program lifecycle.
Identify, assess, prioritise, and monitor risks, issues, opportunities, and benefits.
Facilitate risk workshops and stakeholder engagement sessions to assess control effectiveness and treatment strategies.
Prepare governance reporting, dashboards, briefings, and assurance documentation for senior stakeholders.
Support transition-to-operations planning, including operational readiness, sustainment dependencies, training, and handover activities.
Provide expert advice on risk and benefits management practices aligned to recognised frameworks and governance requirements.
Monitor mitigation actions and benefit realisation activities to ensure delivery objectives are achieved.
Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives by modernising and streamlining risk and assurance processes.

What You’ll Bring

Demonstrated experience in risk management, benefits realisation, or program assurance within complex ICT or Defence-related environments.
Strong understanding of risk and governance frameworks such as ISO 31000, MSP, and enterprise governance practices.
Experience working across acquisition, sustainment, and operational delivery environments.
Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills, with the ability to influence across technical and non-technical teams.
Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced program environment.
Ability to operate autonomously, apply sound judgement, and deliver high-quality governance outcomes.
Relevant qualifications or certifications in risk management, project/program management, or ICT governance are highly regarded.
Current NV1 Security Clearance (or equivalent active clearance eligibility).

Benefits

Why You'll Love Working Here:

Our company is more than just a workplace, it's a hub of inspiration and creativity where employees love to work! Here's why:

Extensive training and development opportunities that enable continual growth as part of your career planning.
Extensive discounts and benefits to maximise your money.
A choice of your IT equipment to maximise your success and access to cost-price tech for your personal needs.
