Product Manager

Location : Barangaroo, Sydney Role Highlights: This is a rare opportunity for a hands-on Product Manager to take ownership of meaningful technology, data and transformation initiatives within a growing global business. The role will suit someone who enjoys operating close to the business, translating complex problems into practical delivery plans and driving outcomes across software, workflow, reporting and AI-enabled initiatives. Role Overview Reporting to the Head of Technology, this Product Manager will play a critical role in driving the organisation's technology, data and AI transformation agenda. Sitting at the intersection of business operations, technology and delivery, you will take ownership of product initiatives that improve operational efficiency, increase data visibility and create scalable business outcomes. Working closely with senior stakeholders, you will define priorities, shape roadmaps and ensure technology investments remain aligned to commercial objectives. This is a highly hands-on role that extends well beyond traditional product ownership. You will partner with business leaders to understand challenges, gather and refine requirements, shape practical solutions and coordinate delivery from concept through to implementation and adoption. A key focus will be balancing strategic priorities with day-to-day execution, while creating clarity across multiple initiatives, stakeholders and delivery teams operating in a fast-paced and evolving environment. The role will be heavily involved in several major transformation programs already underway, including data platform rollout, workflow optimisation, reporting uplift and AI-enabled process improvement. Working across internal teams, external partners and globally distributed delivery resources, you will be responsible for maintaining momentum, managing dependencies and ensuring initiatives deliver measurable business value. This is an opportunity to help shape the future product operating model of a growing international organisation while establishing more mature and scalable delivery practices.
