Location: South Side Brisbane Tech Hub
Role Type: Permanent / Full-Time
The Opportunity
As a Senior Project Manager, you’ll lead the end-to-end delivery of complex technology initiatives, ensuring outcomes are delivered safely, compliantly, and at pace. Beyond traditional delivery, you will play a pivotal role in shaping Consumer Finance projects, ensuring new capabilities—particularly those powered by AI and automation—are introduced responsibly to deliver genuine customer and business value.
You will be a cultural anchor for our South Side Brisbane Tech Hub, leading a vibrant environment of junior PMs and engineers by example, bringing the energy and drive necessary to thrive in a high-growth, modern setting.
What You’ll Do
Dynamic Delivery: Own scope, schedule, budget, risk, and quality for complex initiatives, translating high-level business strategy into actionable delivery plans and measurable outcomes.
Navigate Disruption: Lead cross-functional teams (engineers, architects, data specialists, and vendors) through continuous shifts in technology stacks and "Ways of Working" (WoW).
Adaptive Risk Management: Move beyond "checkbox" governance. You will use lateral thinking to manage risks where traditional guardrails may not yet exist, ensuring safe delivery in an evolving AI-driven landscape.
AI & Automation Champion: Proactively identify where AI can optimize delivery efficiency or customer value, while managing the change impacts on team skills and customer experience.
Lead from the Front: Act as a mentor and coach within the South Side Brisbane hub, uplifting delivery maturity and sharing modern delivery practices to help the broader team grow.
What We’re Looking For
We are looking for a leader who understands that in an AI-disrupted world, adaptability is the new gold standard.
Proven Delivery Excellence: Extensive experience managing complex tech projects within similar large-scale, regulated environments.
Lateral Thinking over Legacy Process: While you respect methodology, you don't rely on it as a crutch. You have the confidence to pivot and solve problems creatively when the standard process falls short.
Resilience Amidst Change: A track record of helping teams remain productive and focused despite constant shifts in tools, tech stacks, and methodologies.
High-Octane Leadership: You bring infectious energy and drive. You are comfortable being a visible leader in a hub environment, coaching junior talent and leading from the front to set the pace.
Strategic Governance: Strong financial management and vendor oversight, with the confidence to engage senior stakeholders and delivery partners authentically.
