At times this also involves responding to urgent workplace initiatives following weather, safety or environmental events across NSW.

You will be responsible for all aspects of client relationship management as it relates to workplace accommodation projects including managing all communication and engagement, business requirements gathering, and client resource capacity planning, whilst also driving workplace standards and participating in project governance, risk and issue management, delivery planning and quality management.. You will also take the lead in embedding a culture of Customer Experience across all teams in Workplace Transformation.
