You’ll join an innovative team who is passionate about applying Customer-Focused Thinking and sound commercial principles to ensure our supply chain effectively supports the infrastructure that connects our communities. It’s meaningful, challenging, and forward-thinking work.

Day-to-day, you will:

This role will suit someone with a curious mind and transferrable skills and experiences, including: 
 

  • Commercial Strategy & Sourcing: Demonstrated experience leading strategic sourcing events, market go-to-market activities, or broader commercial deal-making—evaluating business requirements, scanning market options, and designing commercial structures that unlock value and optimise spend.
  • Negotiation & Deal Execution: Proven success driving commercial negotiations and structuring contracts (e.g., Statements of Work, master services agreements, or partnership terms) using strong Commercial Acumen to secure favourable terms, create value, protect business interests, and manage delivery risk.
  • Supplier Engagement & Stakeholder Alignment: Strong track record in Relationship Building and Collaborative Delivery, partnering effectively with cross-functional internal stakeholders to define sourcing requirements and managing external supplier relationships to ensure commitments are delivered.
  • Market Intelligence & Spend Analytics: High AI & Data Literacy and Critical Thinking, with a talent for analysing spend profiles, cost models, and market intelligence to uncover sourcing opportunities and present actionable commercial recommendations to decision-makers.
  • Commercial Problem Solving & Delivery: A strong background in procurement, commercial management, business partnering, or project delivery—applying proactive Problem Solving and Adaptability to navigate shifting project priorities and dynamic supplier markets.

If you meet some of these requirements, but not all, we encourage you to submit your application. 

You’ll continue to receive great benefits, including:  
 

  • A range of flexible working and leave options, including the option to purchase an additional six weeks of leave each year  
  • 16 weeks paid parental leave (regardless of gender or carer status), with no waiting period, with Superannuation paid during unpaid leave as well
  • Learning and development opportunities to support your career interests 
  • Health and wellbeing support—access to Headspace and our EAP program, wellness facilities, and more 
  • Share offers and insurance benefits 
  • Social activities, community give-back programs and paid volunteer days 

We offer a range of flexible working and leave options, so you can balance your work and life commitments and interests. Have a conversation with us about how this could work for you.  
 

We embrace diversity with a foundation of safety, wellbeing and inclusion; where everyone belongs. We treat everyone with fairness, consideration and respect, regardless of gender, gender identity, marital or family status, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, religious beliefs, cultural or socio-economic background, perspective, and experience – whether they work for us or not.

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene

Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
