Care in Action

With a career at the TAC, you’ll be helping us look out for the lives of everyone who travels on Victoria’s roads. That’s care in action.

Find out more about our shared purpose, and what drives every one of us.

Right now, we’re seeking Senior Project Manager’s who will play their part in this shared purpose, while also supporting the progress of clients and colleagues so they can achieve great things. That’s truly rewarding work that will help us continue to deliver life-critical services where it matters. 

About the role

As a Senior Project Manager you will lead the delivery of high-impact initiatives that underpin TAC’s Make Every Day Matter Strategy.

You will be responsible for planning and delivering complex business transformation initiatives. Working closely with senior leaders and program sponsors, you will translate strategic intent into disciplined delivery, ensuring clear governance, strong stakeholder engagement and accountability for outcomes.

This is not a technical IT project management role. We are seeking experienced business transformation Project Managers who are comfortable sitting with sponsors, facilitating decisions, managing schedules and registers, and guiding the organisation through meaningful change. You will balance strategic thinking with hands-on delivery, bringing judgement, steadiness and credibility to complex, people-centric change.

About the Team

These roles sit within the Enterprise Transformation division, which is responsible for delivering TAC’s most significant strategic and transformation initiatives. The division brings together business, digital, change and delivery expertise to enable sustainable, enterprise-wide outcomes that optimise client experience, employee experience and community impact.

You will work in a collaborative, outcomes-focused environment alongside experienced Program Managers, Change specialists and other delivery experts. The culture is built on trust, accountability and curiosity, with leaders empowered to own their delivery while partnering closely across the organisation to achieve shared outcomes.

What we’re looking for

Business Transformation Project Leadership
You bring 5–10 years’ experience delivering complex business transformation initiatives, with demonstrated success leading transformation programs.

You hold formal project management qualifications and have a strong foundation in structured delivery approaches, ensuring initiatives are well-governed, outcomes-focused and aligned to strategy.

Experience in the insurance, health and disability or government sector is highly desirable.

Confident Delivery Professional with Sound Judgement

You combine strong planning discipline with practical, hands-on delivery. You are comfortable managing schedules, dependencies, risks and governance, while providing confidence and stability to senior leaders navigating complex change.

Trusted Stakeholder Partner

You excel at engaging senior leaders, sponsors and diverse stakeholder groups. With strong communication and influencing skills, you build trust quickly, manage interdependencies effectively and bring people on the journey to deliver shared outcomes.

Why you’ll love it here

There’s more to work than a competitive salary and amazing employee benefits. As our newest Project Manager, you’ll also:

Make a positive difference

Every day the work you do at the TAC contributes to something bigger. As part of an inclusive, supportive team you’ll find real purpose in achieving goals, together.

Be rewarded for great work

We value our people, offering salary packaging and a reward and recognition program.

Grow and go places

We’re invested in your progress. When you work for one of Victoria’s largest and leading workplaces, you’ll receive extensive internal opportunities for development and access to the LinkedIn Learning Digital Hub.

Ready to put care in action? We’d like to hear from you.

Click apply to submit your resume along with a one-page statement describing how you have been most successful in engaging business stakeholders, including examples (in lieu of a cover letter).

If successful, you’ll progress to a phone screen and/or interview. All applicants will be advised of the outcome of their application.

For more information, read the attached Position Description or contact Tamika Russell, Talent Acquisition Specialist at tamika_russell@tac.vic.gov.au for a confidential discussion. Applications for this role close at 11:55pm on Monday 23 February 2026.

This extends to inclusion, diversity and accessibility in our employment practices, and encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people with disability, men, women and gender diverse people, culturally diverse, and LGBTIQA+ people to apply for roles.
