About Gardner Vaughan Group. For Gardner Vaughan Group. For 37 years, GVG has become a respected builder-developer in South-East Queensland through award-winning construction excellence, crafting community legacies that stand as a testament to our innovative vision and unwavering quality standards. Our culture is built on a "best idea wins" philosophy, embracing absolute transparency and "thoughtful disagreement". We are a high-performing team united by a shared purpose and driven by a growth mindset.
The Opportunity
We are seeking a Business Systems and Assurance Manager to design, embed, and maintain GVG’s fit-for-purpose governance, reporting, and assurance operating system. This is a strategic role intended to empower managers to run their areas with lower risk, higher consistency, and better productivity without unnecessary red tape.
You will serve as the architect of the "GVG Management System", providing the guidance, standards, and risk-based assurance that make the system work while supporting Department Directors and SMEs who remain the owners of their processes. You will design a fit-for-purpose framework that drives lower risk, higher consistency, and better productivity without unnecessary red tape. Your work will not only streamline our system and processes but also support GVG’s leadership team in meeting critical governance, assurance and reporting obligations.
Core Responsibilities
* Systems Architecture - Map the management system at a practical level, defining minimum standards for templates, version control, and evidence requirements
* Risk-Based Assurance - Build and implement an efficient assurance plan (audits/reviews) that prevents rework and surprises without simple "box-ticking"
* KPI & Monitoring - Partner with SMEs to define "one reliable source of truth" for data, establishing indicators that drive meaningful decisions
* External Governance - Coordinate inputs for external obligations, including bank reporting packs and the design of ESG monitoring and reporting systems
* Enablement - Drive a culture of understanding by making systems easy to navigate, ensuring staff see the value in systems that save time and reduce rework
Who We Are Looking For
* Experience - You possess 8–12+ years of experience across systems, assurance, risk, compliance, or quality systems
* Systems Thinker - You can design simple architectures that scale and exhibit commercial judgement to balance risk with productivity
* Stakeholder Expert - Ability to guide and support Directors and SMEs
* Data Disciplined - You are comfortable with data definitions, controls, and maintaining a clear audit trail
* Calm Conviction - You can hold firm on standards when it matters most but remain flexible when it doesn’t
