Your new company

You'll be joining a progressive local government organisation that is investing in stronger, more consistent project delivery across its capital works and enterprise portfolios. With a growing pipeline of infrastructure, community, and corporate projects, the City is strengthening its Project Management Office (PMO) to support best‑practice delivery, governance, and capability uplift.

The organisation prides itself on collaboration, accountability, and delivering meaningful outcomes for the community, while providing a supportive and flexible working environment for its people.

Your new role

We are seeking two experienced Project Managers to support the delivery of a diverse portfolio of projects and contribute to the ongoing uplift of the City's enterprise Project Management Framework.

Both roles will take handover of active projects and support delivery across the full project management lifecycle. You will work closely with a multi‑disciplinary team to enhance PMO tools, templates, reporting, and governance, while building strong relationships with stakeholders across the organisation.

You'll also play a key role in delivering regular project and portfolio reporting to Management, Elected Members, and the community, while promoting a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement.

A strong emphasis is placed on governance, consistency, organisational change, and driving enterprise‑wide adoption of project management practices.
