Overview

This Project Manager opportunity sits within a Government programme environment supporting delivery of priority initiatives with a strong local government focus. The successful individual will oversee planning, governance, stakeholder engagement, risk management and delivery assurance across complex projects operating at pace.
The Hiring Manager is seeking a practical delivery professional rather than a coordinator. The successful candidate must be comfortable taking ownership, navigating ambiguity, making progress without extensive guidance and delivering results in environments where priorities regularly evolve.
