Job description

We're looking for a Delivery Capacity Manager to bring visibility and structure to how resourcing works across RAA's transformation portfolio. This is a newly shaped role at the heart of our Project Management Office. Resourcing practices across the portfolio are still developing, so you'll play a lead role in shaping how they work testing your approach against real programs and adjusting as you go. You’ll give program teams and leaders a clear, reliable view of who's working on what, where capacity is stretched, and where trade-offs need to happen — before they become delivery risks.

You’ll build the workforce planning and resourcing practices that underpin our transformation program, working closely with Technology, Business Unit leaders and People & Capability to keep resourcing decisions proactive and evidence-based rather than reactive.

What You'll Do

• Develop and establish a centralised, reliable view of resource capacity, allocation and utilisation across the transformation portfolio – building this and then refining it as it is used
• Develop resource demand forecasts in partnership with program teams, well ahead of delivery milestones
• Identify capacity constraints and pinch points early, and facilitate trade-off conversations across competing programs
• Provide resourcing feasibility input into investment and initiative decisions, shaping how that input is captured as the process matures
• Design and produce consolidated time and utilisation reporting for governance forums Build strong relationships across Technology, Business Units and People & Capability as a trusted advisor on resourcing and capacity
• Play a lead role in identifying and standing up the right tools and processes for tracking resourcing and utilisation across the portfolio

About You

• 5+ years' experience in workforce planning, resource management or capacity planning within a large, complex organisation running multiple concurrent programs
• Comfortable making decisions without an established playbook, and confident to build the approach, test it against real work, and adapt it as required to help program teams
• Genuinely motivated by the opportunity to shape a new practice
• Experience managing resourcing across competing priorities, and with time/resource tracking tooling and reporting
• Strong analytical and facilitation skills — comfortable modelling demand and supply, and leading trade-off conversations across stakeholders
• Understanding of transformation delivery methodologies (Agile, Hybrid, Waterfall) and portfolio/governance reporting practices
• A tertiary qualification in Business, HR, Workforce Planning, Project Management or similar is desirable, as is formal training in workforce/resource or capacity planning
