Are you passionate about preserving heritage while delivering impactful capital works projects? Join the CFC and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of Canberra’s most treasured cultural and historic sites.

You’ll prepare project briefs, procurement documentation, and financial reports, and help establish and implement standards, systems, and procedures that support robust governance and accountability.
We’re looking for a seasoned project leader with a strong track record in capital works delivery, ideally within a government or public sector context. Your ability to navigate procurement processes, manage contracts, and collaborate across teams will be key to your success.
If you’re ready to bring your expertise to a role that blends culture, heritage, and infrastructure, we’d love to hear from you.
