• Coordinate and attend meetings with internal and external stakeholders essential to the delivery of a successful transition

To be successfully considered for this role, you will have:

• Tertiary or trade qualifications in engineering, construction, project management or a related discipline
• Demonstrated experience in external stakeholder engagement
• Experience in project management or delivery
• Strong administrative skills combined with an ability to communicate professionally in verbal and written format
• The ability to achieve pragmatic outcomes which balance cost, risk and complexity and involve multiple stakeholders
