About the role
You will provide central oversight and system-level assurance within a decentralised but coordinated Games delivery ecosystem. You will work across Games Delivery Partners, the Brisbane 2032 Organising Committee, the Australian Government, GIICA, key Queensland Government delivery departments, local government partners and other stakeholders, while recognising that each partner remains accountable through its own governance, risk and project management arrangements.
