About the Role

We're seeking an experienced Operational Project Manager to lead a complex customer transition program across Victoria.

This is a high-impact role with a strong delivery focus - responsible for managing the full lifecycle of moving a large customer base through a carefully planned transition.

Key to success will be your ability to engage with a wide range of stakeholders - including those who are directly impacted, resistant to change, or operating under tight regulatory oversight. You'll need to bring a steady hand, strong influencing skills, and the confidence to navigate challenging conversations while maintaining momentum.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead project planning, execution, and detailed scheduling
  • Coordinate internal teams and external contractors across regions
  • Ensure full compliance with regulatory requirements
  • Communicate clearly and effectively with impacted customers
  • Navigate complex stakeholder environments and manage difficult conversations
  • Proactively manage risks, escalations, and issues
  • Oversee governance, tools, and reporting to support transition delivery

What We're Looking For

  • Experience delivering complex operational projects
  • Background in utilities, gas, mining, or similar industries
  • Strong track record managing difficult stakeholder relationships
  • Skilled in balancing regulatory, customer, and commercial priorities
  • Confident communicator with a calm and pragmatic approach

Please note, at this time we will only be able to contact those successfully shortlisted. This process takes 3-5 business days.
