• Full time opportunity for up to 2 months
• All DPIRD office locations will be considered.
• Clerk Grade 9/10

About the Legacy Mines Program:
The Legacy Mines Program assists landholders by delivering and managing works to reduce risks from legacy mine sites.  The program has a focus on public safety and improving the environment through remediation of historic and abandoned mines.

About the role:
Part of a small team your days will be busy as you lead procurement and contract execution, manage ongoing contracts and review milestone deliverables critical to the program.

You will be responsible for ensuring projects are completed within established timeframes and to a high standard. The LMP not only engages contractors but also works closely with delivery partners such as the Soil Conservation Service and NSW Public Works.

You’ll need to be able to work autonomously, as well as across a team with diverse deliverables.

Our team is keen to welcome:

• An outcomes-focussed person – someone who is disciplined in their project management approach and can work through challenges that pop up while keeping their eyes on the end game.
• A collaborator – someone who is open to shared perspectives and expertise, and who recognises that successful projects respectfully juggle stakeholders with differing needs.
• A critical thinker – someone who will take time to analyse problems and use evidence to present solid options for decision-making.

Applying for the role: If this sounds like you, please apply with a brief cover letter (ideally no more than one-page) outlining why are you are interested in the opportunity, and your resume (ideally no more than three pages) by 9am Tuesday 20 May 2025.
