Our values are more than just words on an email signature; we’re driven by an ethos that inspires and governs everything we do.
The Role:
We have a permanent, full-time opportunity at Manager or Senior Manager level within our Maritime Sustainment segment.
This is a delivery-focused role supporting Defence acquisition and sustainment clients to make better decisions under pressure, improve governance, and stay ahead of risk. You’ll work in complex, multi-stakeholder environments and be trusted to shape practical risk and opportunity approaches that protect schedule, cost, and capability outcomes.
Our Ideal Candidate:
This role suits a Manager or Senior Manager with a strong delivery mindset and substantive experience working in complex, multi-stakeholder environments. You may come from an engineering, project management or similar background, but critically, you bring a mature understanding of risk and opportunity management beyond pure technical delivery.
As a Defence consultancy, we also need you to be an Australian Citizen with the ability to obtain and maintain an AGSVA Security Clearance.
You will demonstrate:
- In-depth experience managing schedule, risk and opportunity in complex programs

- A proactive, opportunity-focused approach to problem-solving
- Confidence engaging with senior Navy and industry stakeholders
- An entrepreneurial mindset, with the ability to challenge assumptions and drive outcomes
- Excellent coordination, communication and stakeholder management skills
Having these other abilities would also be awesome (but not mandatory):
- Experience on large, complex maritime programs, or major platform sustainment or upgrade activities
