EL 1 - AIR6500 Transition Manager
- $115,899 - $130,733 + up to 15.4% Superannuation
- Brindabella Park - ACT
The Role
The AIR6500 Transition Manager is responsible for leading and managing the transition of the Joint Air Battle Management System (JABMS) into service with the Australian Defence Force (ADF). The JABMS provides the core of the ADF’s future Integrated Air and Missile Defence capability. The role provides the opportunity to work at the forefront of sovereign technology development, providing Australia with improved defences against air and missile threats.
The role will work closely with industry partners, acquisition and sustainment organisations, within a dynamic agile project delivery environment, to enable the timely delivery of critical Defence capability. AIR6500 is a key enabler of Australia’s 2024 National Defence Strategy, bringing minimum viable capability into service as efficiently and effectively as possible.
The AIR6500 Agile delivery model sees the Transition Manager coordinating the delivery of capability products during incremental acquisition. This relies on flexibility and just-in-time processes to enable short-term needs, while still having a long-term view to enable ongoing refinement of delivered capability.
The Transition Manager is accountable for timely achievement of capability transition into operational service and is expected to manage associated risks and issues. The role is responsible for writing and managing transition plans, leading coordination across Defence and industry, setting priorities and providing guidance to deliver against a schedule of incremental capability realisation.
The successful applicant must have a strong work ethic, articulate communication skills, and be comfortable working to tight deadlines and managing ambiguity. Ideal attributes for the role include critical thinking, resilience, flexibility, organisational skills, initiative and strategic awareness.
About our Team
The recently announced 2024 National Defence Strategy stated that Defence must deliver a layered Integrated Air and Missile Defence (IAMD) operational capability urgently. This means there are exciting opportunities to work on this critically important Defence capability.
As an integral part of the Air Defence Systems Branch, you will be working with a highly motivated team of people who are committed to delivering this multi-billion dollar capability to the Australian Defence Force.
If you enjoy flexible working conditions and embody the APS values of impartiality, commitment, accountability, respectfulness and ethics we have career opportunities for you.
Our Ideal Candidate
Our ideal candidate will benefit from broad experience and background within Defence, which includes introducing capability into service. Experience in transition activities, project management, stakeholder management, command and control systems, Integrated Logistics Support and export controls is desirable.
The candidate should be able to demonstrate a track record of delivering to time and scope. They must possess outstanding interpersonal and negotiation skills to establish and maintain effective stakeholder relationships across diverse groups. The candidate should be comfortable interacting in different environments such as operational ADF units, governance forums, and hybrid working groups involving Defence and industry personnel.
The candidate needs to demonstrate work ethic, being comfortable working to tight deadlines and managing ambiguity. Critical thinking, resilience, flexibility, organisational skills, initiative and strategic awareness will elevate the candidate’s ability to operate seamlessly within the challenging and rewarding AIR6500 project environment.
