About The Position

This is a specialist role sitting at the intersection of facilities capability, systems documentation and complex project delivery.

You’ll help define and document the facility requirements needed to support a major operational capability, working closely with users, delivery stakeholders and project teams to translate practical needs into structured project artefacts and approval documentation.

The role has a strong written and analytical component. You’ll develop high-quality capability documentation, support facility-related project approvals, contribute to systems engineering records and provide clear reporting to senior forums and decision-makers.

There is also a significant stakeholder component, requiring someone comfortable working across multiple delivery groups, understanding competing requirements and helping keep facility planning aligned with broader project outcomes.

What You’ll Do

• Develop high-quality capability and facilities documentation, including statements of need and project approval artefacts.
• Work with stakeholders to define facility requirements and ensure they are accurately reflected across project documentation.
• Prepare structured technical and commercial documentation, including Data Item Descriptions and systems engineering records.
• Monitor progress, provide written and verbal reporting, and represent project requirements across working groups, committees and stakeholder forums.

What We Are Looking For

• Strong analytical and written communication capability, with experience producing high-quality project, capability or technical documentation.
• Experience working across complex stakeholder environments and translating operational requirements into structured project outcomes.
• Background in facilities delivery, infrastructure programs or similarly complex capability environments.
• Experience contributing to commercial, acquisition or major project activities will be highly regarded.

Environment & Capability

• Facilities Requirements & Capability Documentation
• Systems Engineering Artefacts & Technical Records
• Stakeholder Coordination & Project Governance
• Commercial Documentation & Project Approvals

A Quick Note Before You Apply

• This role is unlikely to suit candidates whose experience has been limited to facilities operations or maintenance without broader involvement in requirements definition, project documentation and stakeholder-led delivery.
• The stronger fit is someone who can move comfortably between users, project teams and delivery stakeholders while producing clear, reliable documentation that supports formal project decisions.
• Applicants must be Australian Citizen and hold a minimum NV1 Security Clearance.
