You'll be encouraged to bring your ideas forward and make a difference through your work, while still having room for fun, friendships and flexibility in your daily life.

We're driven by our core values: lead with heart, learn for tomorrow and live our legacy. A purpose like ours takes the inspired impact of an incredible team. Ready to change the game? We're ready to help you do it.

The Role:

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Project Manager to join AP+ on a 12-month maximum-term contract, leading a significant systems implementation project.

Sitting at the intersection of business, technology and data, you’ll lead multiple interconnected workstreams and bring together stakeholders from across AP+ to shape and deliver a solution that meets both commercial and technology requirements.

You’ll be comfortable leading in-flight projects towards delivery, while also working on other key initiatives around discovery and business case design.

You’ll then provide end-to-end project leadership, managing plans, budgets, resources, risks and stakeholders to deliver against agreed outcomes.

What You’ll Do

• Lead the delivery of significant commercial systems implementations.

• Manage multiple concurrent workstreams across business, technology and data.

• Work with business stakeholders to understand commercial requirements and translate these into clearly defined project outcomes.

• Partner closely with technology and data teams to shape practical, scalable solutions.

• Develop and maintain integrated project plans, timelines, budgets, resource requirements and dependencies.

• Establish strong project governance, reporting and decision-making processes.

• Identify and proactively manage risks, issues and cross-workstream dependencies.

• Manage project budgets and forecasts, maintaining clear oversight of project financials.

• Facilitate senior stakeholder discussions and drive timely decisions where competing priorities or trade-offs arise.

• Track project outcomes and benefits to ensure the solution delivers the intended business value.

• Maintain high-quality project documentation and provide clear reporting on progress, risks and key decisions.

• The broader role requires strong ownership of complex projects, including management of resources, budgets, timelines, risk and stakeholder expectations.

What We’re Looking For:

• You’ll be a commercially minded Senior Project Manager who can comfortably move between business and technology conversations and bring structure to complex, data-driven initiatives.

Ideally, you’ll bring:

• 5+ years’ experience as a Senior Project Manager delivering complex business and technology projects.

• Demonstrated experience delivering a commercial technology system implementation.

• Strong understanding of data-driven technology solutions and the role data plays in system design, integration and business outcomes.

• Experience working across a mix of business and technology-facing project work.

• Proven ability to lead multiple workstreams simultaneously, managing dependencies and maintaining alignment across teams.

• Strong experience at the discovery and business case stages of the project lifecycle — able to take an opportunity from an initial concept through to a clearly defined, executable initiative.

• Strong project planning, governance, budgeting, risk management and reporting capability.

• Excellent stakeholder management skills, including the ability to influence and facilitate decisions across senior business and technology stakeholders.

• Experience within payments, financial services or another complex technology environment would be highly regarded. What happens next:

• At AP+, you’ll help strengthen the quality of services that support Australia’s payments ecosystem, working with teams across our brands and technology functions to deliver dependable outcomes for customers and partners.

• If you’re ready to be a game changer, please submit your application. The Talent Acquisition team will endeavour to review your application and notify you of the outcome within the next two weeks.

• AP+ is not partnering with Agencies for this role.
