About the opportunity
The Lead, Operational Strategy, Change and Commissioning, will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of healthcare infrastructure across NSW. This role combines strategic change management expertise with operational commissioning insight to support operational readiness and the successful delivery and adoption of major hospital redevelopment projects. The role will provide specialist advice, mentorship, and hands-on support to Health Infrastructure project teams, Local Health Districts (LHDs), and other NSW Health entities. The focus for this role will be on enabling clinical and non-clinical transformation through the capital investment, ensuring that new facilities and their people are operationally ready to achieve a timely and effective transition of services on Day 1 to the new facility.

There will be two (2) fulltime ongoing positions and two (2) 2 year fulltime fixed term positions available. Remuneration will be determined with the successful candidate.

About you
To succeed in this role, you will have experience in the delivery of change management and hospital operational commissioning activities across a variety of hospital redevelopments. Your detail-oriented approach and stakeholder management skills will support you to work independently and collaboratively across geographically dispersed teams and you’ll work collaboratively with Local Health Districts and HI project teams to ensure new facilities are operationally ready from Day 1. If you’re a confident communicator, a trusted advisor, and thrive in high-pressure settings, we invite you to bring your leadership to this impactful role.
