Australia’s energy grid is transforming and the governance frameworks behind it need to keep pace.

• Conduct compliance checks to confirm gate readiness and decision alignment before project progression.

• Coordinate governance interfaces with the Assurance Team for audits, Independent Assurance Reviews and Health Checks.

• Analyse audit findings and review data to spot patterns, drive lessons learned and recommend framework improvements.

• Communicate governance changes, PMF updates and improvement initiatives clearly and proactively across stakeholders.

What you bring

• Working knowledge of project delivery lifecycles and PMF / stage-gate governance structures.

• Familiarity with PMBOK principles and ISO 9001 management system requirements.

• Experience supporting audit, assurance or compliance activities in a project environment.
