ICT Project Manager | Government Digital Delivery & Technology

  • Location: ACT (ACT Based Only)
  • Security Clearance: NV1 (Mandatory)
  • Contract Length: 12 months + 2 × 12-month extensions (Department discretion)

About the position:

This ICT Project Manager role supports the delivery of technology initiatives within a Parliamentary operating environment. Projects range across digital transformation, cyber security uplift, systems integration, and enterprise technology refresh.

The environment requires structured governance, careful stakeholder navigation, and disciplined compliance alignment. Success in this role is measured not only by delivery timelines, but by adherence to government frameworks, procurement controls, and risk management standards.

What you’ll do:

  • Lead end-to-end delivery of ICT projects aligned to government frameworks and policy settings
  • Coordinate multidisciplinary teams including architects, analysts, vendors, and business stakeholders
  • Maintain schedules, budgets, risk registers, and executive reporting artefacts
  • Ensure change management, procurement, and compliance obligations are met throughout the lifecycle

What we are looking for:

  • 7+ years’ experience managing ICT projects within Australian Government environments
  • Strong working knowledge of Agile and/or PRINCE2 delivery methodologies
  • Demonstrated capability navigating procurement, reporting, and governance processes
  • Confident stakeholder engagement across technical, executive, and operational audiences

Seniority fit:

  • This role suits project managers already comfortable operating within formal governance and Parliamentary reporting structures
  • Experience managing projects with cross-agency visibility or compliance scrutiny is highly regarded
  • Ability to balance delivery pace with procedural discipline is essential

Technology & environment:

  • Digital transformation and enterprise ICT initiatives
  • Cyber security uplift projects (PSPF, ISM, Essential Eight alignment where relevant)
  • Systems integration and infrastructure refresh programs
  • Government procurement and compliance frameworks including PGPA and Digital Service Standard

A quick note before you apply:

  • This role operates within a Parliamentary context where governance, documentation, and accountability are central to delivery
  • If your experience has primarily been in commercial environments without exposure to Australian Government frameworks, this may not align with current requirements
  • An active NV1 security clearance is required
  • The role requires disciplined reporting and comfort working within formal oversight processes
