Own complex technology projects and influence how they are delivered

Looking for a substantial contract where you can take genuine ownership of complex technology delivery?

Experteq is seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager for an initial 12-month contract to lead multiple concurrent projects across our business and customer environments.

You'll take end-to-end ownership of delivery, bringing together customers, technical teams and third parties to achieve strong commercial, operational and customer outcomes.

About Experteq

Experteq is a proudly Australian-owned IT Managed Services Provider and Professional Services Consultancy with more than 30 years of experience.

We deliver innovative technology solutions to more than 50 clients across Australia's banking, finance, corporate and government sectors, including 30% of Australia's Authorised Deposit-taking Institutions.

Our teams work with customers operating in highly regulated environments where security, compliance and dependable technology delivery matter.

What You'll Own

• Multiple concurrent technology projects from initiation through to transition and closure
• Trusted relationships with customers, project sponsors, internal stakeholders and third parties
• Accurate project controls that support customer, portfolio and executive decision‑making
• Scope, schedules, budgets, quality, risks, dependencies and change control
• Resource planning, financial forecasting, invoicing and commercial performance
• Clear accountability and momentum across cross‑functional teams
• Service transition, operational readiness, cutover and handover into business‑as‑usual operations

• The ability to lead and influence cross‑functional teams without relying on direct authority

Experience across banking technology, managed services transitions, customer onboarding, infrastructure or platform refreshes, security and compliance initiatives, Microsoft Cloud or Microsoft 365 migrations will be highly regarded.

You don't need to be a technical specialist, but you will need the technical aptitude to identify delivery risks, ask effective questions and lead resolution across architecture and engineering teams.

Why Join Experteq?
