ABOUT THE ROLE

I’m recruiting a Senior Project Manager for a insurance firm in Sydney. They are looking for someone to lead a critical data transformation initiative. This is a 6-month contract to design and implement their data foundations platform, working across technology, analytics and business teams to ensure successful delivery.

This is a hands-on PM role where you’ll own the delivery roadmap, manage dependencies, track risk and keep stakeholders aligned throughout the program lifecycle. It’s a high-visibility opportunity to lead strategic infrastructure work for an established organisation.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Own end-to-end delivery of data foundations workstreams from scoping through implementation and cutover
  • Establish and manage project governance, reporting cadence and decision-making frameworks
  • Coordinate with technology teams (data engineers, architects, infrastructure) to track technical delivery against milestones
  • Manage stakeholder communications with business owners, executives and technical leads
  • Identify and mitigate project risks, issues and blockers before they impact delivery
  • Track budget and resource allocation across the program
  • Support and resolve escalations as they arise

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

You bring 5+ years of project management experience, ideally delivering data infrastructure, data warehousing, analytics platforms or large-scale enterprise transformation programs.

You’re comfortable working in technical environments and can communicate effectively with both technology and business stakeholders. You understand the complexity of data programs – dependency management, technical risk, stakeholder management and scope discipline matter.

You’ve managed teams or vendors, tracked delivery against budgets and timelines, and know how to keep a program moving when things get complex.

Familiarity with data transformation projects, cloud migration programs, or infrastructure delivery in banking, insurance or enterprise tech.

WHAT’S ON OFFER

  • 6 month contract at $900-1000 per day (dependent on experience and seniority)
  • Sydney-based, hybrid working arrangement
  • Lead a high-visibility data infrastructure program for an established client
  • Work with strong technical teams and experienced stakeholders
  • Contract may extend based on program success and performance
