Job description

We are oOh!media (pronounced “oh!” media).

oOh!media is the #1 Out of Home company in Australia and New Zealand. We exist to make public spaces better and brands unmissable, proudly leading the market with innovation, creativity, data and results. Our network plays an important role in the communities they are located, creating engaging environments that inform, entertain and inspire, while connecting brands with audiences at scale.

We have a unique culture, purpose and set of values that shape how we show up every day. We Win as One. We are Hungry. Always. And we Own It. We are oOh!media, and we are unmissable.

About the opportunity:

• Employment Type: Full-time, Permanent


• Flexibility: A vibrant, collaborative culture with 4 days in the office and flexibility built in


• Location: Based in Sydney

As the Head of Project Delivery & Capital Programs, you will be the senior leader single-point-of-accountable for oOh!media’s national capital delivery portfolio. Leading a team of approximately 10 professionals (including Senior Project Managers, Project Managers, and Project Coordinators), you hold end-to-end accountability for a function that directly determines how quickly capital investment is converted into active revenue.

This is a critical transformation and operational leadership role responsible for overseeing approximately $30 million in annual CAPEX across digital assets, large-format structures, site upgrades, relocations, and major capital works. You will lead the shift from individual-reliant execution to a disciplined, nationally consistent operating model underpinned by the oOh!Works Playbook, enterprise systems, and strong Bid-to-Build governance.

Based in Sydney, you’ll have the opportunity to shape a high-impact national function, lead strategic operational change, and be supported by an executive leadership team.

What you’ll be doing:

• National Portfolio Leadership: Own the delivery of all approved national capital projects across time, cost, quality, safety, risk, and Time-to-Revenue performance.


• Functional Transformation & Capability: Build, structure, and mentor the project delivery cascade. Embed cross-format project breadth across the team and capture specialist knowledge into the Playbook to eliminate reliance on individual "hero" culture.


• Operating Model & System Integration: Lead the national rollout of standard delivery practices, strong governance gates, and the transition from spreadsheet tracking to an enterprise Project Delivery Dashboard/FSM platform.


• Capital Discipline & Financial Control: Maintain strict portfolio-level cost control, forecast accuracy, and variance management across ~$30M CAPEX. Ensure audit-ready documentation and governance across all projects.


• Bid-to-Build Integration: Structurally embed Capital Delivery into the commercial bid stage so that delivery feasibility, resourcing, costs, and timelines are validated before commercial commitments are finalized.


• Safety, Risk & Compliance: Maintain a target of zero high-severity safety incidents across all capital works and ensure 100% compliance with WHS, electrical, traffic, and regulatory standards.


• Contractor & Supplier Management: Partner with Supply Chain to drive contractor performance, enforce Master Services Agreement (MSA) standards, and make transparent cost-versus-quality decisions.


• Time-to-Revenue Optimization: Collaborate across Sales, Planning, Supply Chain, and Field Operations to remove delivery blockers and compress the timeframe from contract signature to first-day-on-air.

What you’ll bring:

• Senior Delivery Leadership: Proven track record in a senior-level project, program, or capital delivery leadership role overseeing complex, multi-stream national portfolios.


• Transformation Expertise: Demonstrated success driving operating model change, embedding governance frameworks, and transitioning teams from person-dependent execution to a scalable, systems-led function.


• Commercial & Capital Acumen: Strong financial management skills with expertise in CAPEX allocation, variance management, risk mitigation, and portfolio-level reporting.


• Industry Background: Background in construction, infrastructure, telecommunications, media/signage, property, or another asset-intensive sector.


• Technical & Platform Experience: Proficiency with enterprise project tracking, portfolio scheduling tools (MS Project or equivalent), SharePoint, advanced Excel, and FSM/ERP platform environments.


• Leadership Attributes: A calm, adaptable, and decisive leader who thrives in ambiguous environments, communicates with direct respect, and builds high-performing, accountable team cultures.


• Qualifications: Relevant tertiary qualifications or formal project management accreditation (PMP, PRINCE2, or equivalent) preferred.

Benefits and perks:

• Modern offices with great amenities and easy transport access


• Competitive salary and bonus opportunities


• Career development and learning opportunities to support your growth


• Generous parental leave and wellbeing support, including EAP access via Sonder


• Regular team events, social activities, and recognition programs


• Wellness initiatives and discounts to support your health and lifestyle


• The opportunity to work with leading brands on high-impact, creative campaigns
