The posting

  • Senior Contract
  • Full-time, fixed-term position (3 years)
  • Macquarie University, Wallumattagal Campus

Macquarie University is seeking an experienced Domain Delivery Lead to provide strategic leadership and end-to-end delivery accountability across the Corporate and Research technology domains.

Reporting to the Delivery Office Lead, you will lead the coordinated delivery of strategic initiatives spanning corporate platforms, human resources, finance, enterprise data, digital research services and research infrastructure.

You will translate University and technology priorities into integrated domain roadmaps and executable delivery plans, ensuring investments are appropriately prioritised, governed, resourced and delivered. You will balance strategic demand against available funding, resources and delivery capacity while managing dependencies across initiatives and domains.

Working closely with senior business and technology stakeholders, you will provide clear, evidence-based advice on delivery performance, financial position, priorities, risks and investment decisions, while enabling multidisciplinary teams to deliver meaningful and sustainable outcomes.

About the Role

  • Lead the strategic planning and delivery of technology initiatives across the Corporate and Research domains.
  • Develop and maintain integrated domain roadmaps covering strategic priorities, investment, capacity, resources, dependencies, risks and benefits.
  • Own domain-level demand, prioritisation and capacity planning, balancing strategic priorities against available funding and delivery capacity.
  • Provide delivery oversight across multiple concurrent initiatives, programs and delivery streams.
  • Partner with senior business and technology stakeholders to prioritise initiatives, resolve complex delivery issues and support effective investment decisions.
  • Provide leadership across multidisciplinary teams comprising delivery managers, business analysts, change practitioners, testing specialists and other delivery resources.
  • Lead effective governance, reporting, escalation and decision-making arrangements, ensuring they remain proportionate to delivery complexity and risk.
  • Oversee domain budgets, forecasts, procurement activities, vendors and commercial commitments.
  • Ensure architecture, cyber security, privacy, data governance and service requirements are appropriately embedded throughout delivery.
  • Oversee operational readiness, release governance, service integration and benefits realisation.
  • Manage complex cross-domain dependencies, risks and competing priorities to support coordinated delivery.
  • Strengthen domain delivery capability through consistent delivery practices, coaching and continuous improvement.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
