Project Operations Manager
Lead a high-impact project portfolio in a growing healthcare technology environment—shaping how delivery scales, performs and evolves.
The role will be based in Cammeray, Sydney, with responsibility across the New South Wales and ACT territory.
At Rauland Australia and New Zealand, we're passionate about creating technology that helps healthcare teams deliver safer, smarter and more connected care.
We're seeking an exceptional Project Operations Manager to lead our NSW & ACT project portfolio, driving operational excellence, commercial performance and delivery outcomes across a complex portfolio of healthcare technology projects.
This is a leadership opportunity for someone who combines commercial credibility with a proven ability to influence, develop people and deliver results. We're seeking a leader who builds trust quickly, drives accountability and creates momentum across customers, projects and teams. Someone who can bring clarity to complexity, strengthen capability and build the delivery foundations that support long-term growth.
You'll work at the intersection of project delivery, commercial performance, customer relationships and people leadership, helping shape how some of Australia's most critical healthcare technology projects are delivered.
For the right person, this is an opportunity to make a genuine impact, leading a significant project portfolio, developing high-performing teams and helping advance healthcare technology across New South Wales and the ACT.
The Opportunity
Exceptional project delivery doesn't happen by chance.
It requires strong leadership, commercial discipline, clear accountability and the ability to bring people together around a common outcome.
As Project Operations Manager, you'll be accountable for the performance, governance and commercial success of a substantial healthcare technology project portfolio across NSW and ACT.
Leading a multidisciplinary team of Project Managers, Site Leaders and Delivery professionals, you'll bring visibility, structure and rhythm to a portfolio of complex projects while ensuring strong customer outcomes, sustainable financial performance and long-term growth.
This is far more than a project management role. It's an opportunity to influence territory performance, lead people, strengthen capability and help shape the next phase of project delivery at Rauland.
You'll inherit strong foundations, a committed team and a healthy pipeline of work. The opportunity now is to build on that momentum, strengthening governance, uplifting capability and creating the operational rhythm that enables delivery to scale, becoming more predictable, efficient and repeatable.
Equally important is your ability to stay close to the operation. You'll engage confidently with customers, healthcare leaders, consultants, builders, subcontractors and internal stakeholders, building trusted relationships and navigating complex delivery environments with confidence.
This role will suit a leader who enjoys operating at the intersection of strategy and execution. Someone who can see the bigger picture while confidently stepping into complex delivery challenges when required, creating alignment, removing obstacles and empowering others to succeed.
What You'll Be Responsible For
Delivering project portfolio performance across revenue, margin, forecasting, customer outcomes and delivery excellence.
Leading, coaching and developing a team of Project Managers, Site Managers and Delivery professionals.
Driving governance, commercial discipline and proactive risk management across a complex portfolio.
Building capability, accountability and a high-performance culture founded on collaboration and continuous improvement.
Strengthening resource planning, utilisation and operational efficiency across the territory.
Building trusted relationships with customers, consultants, contractors, subcontractors and key stakeholders.
Driving forecasting accuracy, project visibility and portfolio reporting excellence.
Partnering with Sales and Commercial teams to ensure projects are set up for successful delivery from day one.
Improving systems, processes and ways of working to support future growth and scalability.
Contributing to strategic initiatives that strengthen delivery performance and customer value.
What We're Looking For
We're seeking an accomplished project operations or delivery leader with a proven ability to lead and influence people, build high-performing teams and deliver sustained commercial and operational success.
You'll bring:
Demonstrated success leading complex project portfolios within healthcare technology, systems integration, ICT infrastructure, building automation, security technology, smart buildings or similar delivery environments.
Proven experience coaching, motivating and developing high-performing project and operational teams.
Strong commercial acumen across forecasting, revenue, margin management, governance and project risk.
A track record of delivering complex projects while maintaining strong customer relationships and commercial outcomes.
Executive presence and credibility engaging customers, consultants, contractors and senior stakeholders.
The ability to navigate complex stakeholder environments and influence outcomes at all levels.
Experience operating within dynamic, evolving businesses where growth, change and adaptability are essential.
A collaborative leadership style that balances accountability, performance and people development.
