Project Manager

Contract · part-time or full-time Canberra / Remote

Keep client projects on time, on budget, and honestly communicated — from kickoff to handover.

About the role

You'll run the delivery side of our client engagements: plans, timelines, budgets, and the steady communication that keeps everyone confident.

We run lean — no process theatre. Your job is to remove friction for the people building, and make sure clients always know exactly where things stand.

What you'll do

  • Plan and track client projects from kickoff to handover
  • Own client communication: status updates, meetings, expectations
  • Manage scope, timelines, and budgets — and raise risks early, not after
  • Coordinate the specialist team across concurrent projects
  • Keep improving how we deliver

What we're looking for

  • Experience managing software or technical delivery projects
  • Strong written and verbal communication
  • Comfortable with lightweight agile delivery — without cargo-culting ceremony
  • Calm and decisive when priorities shift

Nice to have

  • Experience with government clients or procurement
  • A GIS or data project background
  • Formal PM certification (PMP, PRINCE2, or agile equivalents)
