Job description

At NRI, we bring together deep technology expertise, capability and real-world industry experience to help organisations solve complex challenges and shape what’s next. From IT advisory and enterprise transformation to quality engineering, cyber, cloud and managed services, we work across the full technology lifecycle – turning ideas into outcomes that make a difference. With a global heritage and a strong presence across Australia, New Zealand and Asia, we combine scale and capability with agility, collaboration and personal connection of a local team.

THE OPPORTUNITY

NRI is seeking an experienced Technical / Infrastructure Project Manager to join a major internal technology integration program bringing multiple parts of the organisation together into a single Microsoft ecosystem. This is a hands‑on delivery role within a large‑scale transformation program, managing multiple concurrent Microsoft technology workstreams across Microsoft 365 migration, Modern Workplace, endpoint management, Intune, security and compliance. This is an initial 12‑month contract supporting a program with approximately 18 months of planned delivery remaining, providing potential for extension. Candidates can be based anywhere in Australia; however, Sydney or Melbourne is preferred due to the majority of the project team being based on the East Coast. Candidates based elsewhere will need to be comfortable working predominantly to East Coast hours.

Remote work is mostly ok, with occasional in‑office catch‑ups with key stakeholders as required, depending on location.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

You’ll take ownership of key streams within the program, working closely with architects, technical leads and senior stakeholders to drive delivery against defined timelines and milestones. Key areas of responsibility will include:

• Leading Microsoft 365 migration and integration workstreams, including the migration of users and data into a new M365 tenancy.
• Managing endpoint transformation, including the rollout of a new Standard Operating Environment (SOE) and migration of endpoints into Microsoft Intune.
• Supporting broader security, data and compliance uplift initiatives.
• Managing multiple technical workstreams, dependencies, risks, issues and delivery timelines.
• Working closely with architects, technical leads and engineering teams to coordinate technical delivery.
• Leading technical and project workshops with key stakeholders.
• Providing clear program status, risk and delivery reporting, including monthly executive/board‑level reporting.
• Ensuring projects are delivered within agreed scope, timelines and budget.
• The broader position also requires strong project planning, financial management and the ability to coordinate technical teams and resources throughout the project lifecycle.

SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

We’re particularly interested in Technical Project Managers who have already delivered complex Microsoft migration or Modern Workplace programmes and can bring that experience into the programme from day one. Ideally, you’ll have:

• Strong Technical Project Management experience within Microsoft environments.
• Demonstrated experience delivering Microsoft 365 migration programmes, ideally including tenant‑to‑tenant migrations.
• Experience with Intune, endpoint/device migrations and/or SOE deployments.
• A strong high‑level understanding of Microsoft Modern Workplace technologies and the ability to work confidently with architects and technical specialists.
• Experience managing multiple concurrent technical workstreams and complex dependencies.
• Strong stakeholder management skills across technical teams, business stakeholders and senior leadership.
• Experience facilitating technical workshops and driving actions through to delivery.
• Strong governance and reporting capability, including executive or board‑level reporting.
• A proven ability to deliver complex programmes against strict timelines.
• PRINCE2 or equivalent project management certification is desirable.
