Job Description

Jora New Zealand will close on 9th September 2026. Thank you for being with us, we are cheering you on as you continue your career journey. Datacom works with organisations and communities across Australia and New Zealand to make a difference in people's lives and help organisations use the power of tech to innovate and grow. As a senior leader within Datacom's delivery leadership team, the Programme Director is the sole accountable leader for one of our most complex, high-value enterprise programmes. You will own the programme end-to-end, setting the vision, driving delivery, and ensuring outcomes are realised at scale. This is not a shared leadership model; you are the single point of strategic, commercial, and delivery accountability. You’ll bring together strategic clarity, technology leadership, commercial discipline, and operational excellence to create coherence across multiple workstreams. Critically, you will operate confidently at the executive level, reporting directly to senior leaders, shaping decision-making, and providing clear, insight-driven guidance that keeps the programme aligned to organisational priorities. Your leadership sets the tone, direction, and delivery rhythm, turning ambition into execution, complexity into clarity, and delivery into sustained value. At the moment, as Programme Director you will be focused on: Setting goals for programmes aligned to organisational objectives and creating programme roadmaps. Leading programme planning, structuring, and delivery governance to ensure quality outcomes. Managing complex multi-platform technical delivery environments, including project teams and senior stakeholder engagement. Overseeing programme schedules, budgets, risks, and resources to align with contractual and commercial agreements. Facilitating organisational change management to achieve expected business benefits. Guiding and mentoring Programme Managers to deliver success across multiple workstreams. Driving stakeholder communications, reporting, and decision-making through clear metrics and delivery documentation. Supporting pre-sales activities, bid development, and future programme strategy improvements. Ensuring programmes remain aligned with Datacom's strategic priorities, risk frameworks, and delivery standards. We are an agile company and are keen to respond to customer, technology, and internal stakeholders' changing requirements. This means our roles often evolve to meet those needs. Datacom is one of Australia and New Zealand's largest suppliers of Information Technology professional services. We have maintained a dynamic, agile, small-business feel that is often diluted in larger organisations of our size. It’s our people who give Datacom its unique culture and energy. From the moment you meet us, you’ll see we’re passionate about collaboration and doing great work. We care about our people and provide a range of benefits such as: social events chill-out spaces remote working flexible hours professional development opportunities You’ll have the opportunity to learn, develop your career, connect with talented people, and bring your true self to work. You will be recognised and valued for your contributions and be able to do your work in a collegial, flat-structured environment. #J-18808-Ljbffr
