As Project Manager, Portable Bonds with Consumer and Business Services, you'll lead the design and implementation of the Portable Rental Bonds Scheme. You'll have the opportunity to take ownership of a complex, high-profile program that brings together technology, service design, policy, legislation and operational delivery. Working with a high degree of autonomy, you'll lead a small team, oversee project delivery and work across government and with key external stakeholders to turn the vision for portable rental bonds into an effective end-to-end service.

Experience in government, housing, rental bonds, legislative reform or technology-enabled service delivery will be highly regarded.
