Are you an experienced project professional who thrives on complexity, stakeholder engagement, and delivering outcomes that leave a lasting legacy?
We're seeking a Senior Project Officer, Major Infrastructure to help unlock the potential of Crown land across New South Wales. This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of infrastructure, housing, land activation, and community development, partnering with Local Aboriginal Land Councils, local government, industry, and government agencies to create sustainable opportunities for communities.
You’ll support end‑to‑end delivery of major infrastructure projects that activate Crown land and create better outcomes for communities. The role involves planning and coordinating projects, managing budgets and timelines, and working closely with both private and government proponents, local councils, Aboriginal Land Councils and other stakeholders to resolve complex land use issues.
You’ll balance competing priorities and stakeholders while keeping projects on track and meeting quality standards.
