Senior Project Manager

Our Why

Datacom works with organisations and communities across Australia and New Zealand to make a difference in people’s lives and help organisations use the power of tech to innovate and grow.

About the Role (Your Why)

You will be joining our growing national Project Services team, delivering projects to one of our important customers. In this role as Senior Project Manager, you will ensure that all projects are delivered to the highest quality standard, within scope, on budget, and on time. You’ll take ownership of project delivery from the moment it’s handed over from our Sales team, and play a pivotal role in engaging with stakeholders, managing deliverables, and ensuring successful project outcomes.

Our offices are based in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. We like to bring people together in person when we can, but we are mindful of the benefits of working from home for work/life balance. We therefore leave it to you and the team you join to figure out what works best!

** Please note that due to customer requirements, this role requires Australian Citizenship and eligibility to undertake a Federal Government Security Clearance ** 

What you’ll do

At the moment, as Senior Project Manager you will be focused on:

• Overseeing end-to-end project delivery including planning, tracking, and managing variations
• Producing high-quality documentation and technical writing with an eye for detail and accuracy
• Assisting in the scoping and planning of business analysis activities to ensure clear understanding of project requirements
• Supporting the team with a range of diverse Business Analysis activities to capture business needs and manage stakeholders effectively
• Establishing and maintaining strong relationships with both technical teams and business stakeholders
• Assisting the Sales and Presales teams with responses to RFQs, RFPs, RFIs and managing project variations

We are a pretty agile company and are keen to respond to customer, technology and internal stakeholders’ changing requirements — which can mean we evolve in our roles to meet those needs.

What you’ll bring

Required experience:

• Strong client focus with proven ability to build and maintain trusted relationships
• Exceptional planning and organisational skills with sharp attention to detail
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities in a high-pressure environment
• Proven record of delivering projects on time, within budget, scope, and quality requirements
• Experience supporting Sales and Presales teams with bid responses and project variations

Nice to have:

• Experience working in a variety of industries or project environments
• Relevant project management qualifications or certifications (e.g. PMP, PRINCE2, Agile)
• Strong business analysis experience alongside project management delivery
