You will ideally bring:


  • Experience supporting or managing technology or digital projects.
  • A solid understanding of project management methodologies (Agile, Waterfall, PRINCE2, PMP, Scrum, etc.).
  • Relevant qualifications in IT, digital, or project management, or equivalent experience.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with both technical and non‑technical audiences.
  • Strong stakeholder‑engagement and coordination skills.
  • The ability to prioritise competing tasks and adapt to shifting priorities.
  • Exposure to the NSW State Government environment or broader public sector settings would be highly advantageous, especially experience working within established governance frameworks.
