As the Program Lead within our AI Learning Project team, you will be responsible for the delivery discipline that keeps the AI Immersion initiative on track—ensuring we have a single source of truth for progress, risks, dependencies, resourcing and budget, and that governance has the information it needs to make timely decisions. This role has full accountability for integrated planning, tracking, and reporting across the program lifecycle (design → build → launch → transition to sustain). You will partner closely with the Project Lead, Program Owner, workstream leads and key stakeholders to translate agreed outcomes into a clear plan, maintain delivery momentum, and provide early warning where timelines, scope, risk or resources are at risk. Why PwC? At PwC Australia, your skills meet purpose. We tackle big challenges across industries like finance, technology, energy, and health—giving you the chance to make a real impact.

Maintain a single source of truth for delivery status across workstreams; ensure updates are accurate, timely and action-oriented. Track program budget, resourcing and key milestones; support monitoring and forecasting of spend against plan. Own and maintain the RAID log (risks, assumptions, issues, dependencies) and ensure clear owners, mitigations and due dates are in place. Produce the monthly RAG status report and other governance reporting; provide concise insights and recommended actions/decisions. Manage governance cadence: schedule meetings, prepare packs, capture actions, and maintain decision and action logs. Provide early warning of risks and slippage; surface trade-offs and options with impact assessment. Support resource coordination across workstreams; identify capacity constraints and propose mitigations. Promote delivery discipline through repeatable ways of working, templates, and clear documentation. What we’re looking for: Demonstrated experience in program/project delivery (planning, tracking, governance and reporting), ideally within learning, transformation, technology or people enablement initiatives. Strong capability in building and maintaining integrated project plans, RAID management, and governance rhythms that enable fast decision-making. Confidence partnering with senior stakeholders and workstream leads—able to influence, challenge constructively, and create clarity from ambiguity. High attention to detail with the ability to synthesise complex information into clear, decision-ready reporting. Comfort working at pace with multiple priorities; proactive in identifying issues before they become blockers.
