About the Role
Reporting to the Head of Villages, the Manager of Villages Planning & Operations leads the strategic planning and coordination for all Brisbane 2032 Games Villages. In this highly collaborative role, you will partner closely with government agencies, developers, and internal Functional Areas to align physical infrastructure development with complex operational needs right from the early planning stages. A key priority is designing integrated, athlete-focused Village solutions that meet International Olympic Committee (IOC) and International Paralympic Committee (IPC) standards. Crucially, this involves ensuring that Paralympic requirements and accessibility needs are deeply embedded across all aspects of Village design and delivery, creating an inclusive, fit-for-purpose environment for all.
As the organisation scales, you will drive procurement planning, establish rigorous risk management and service level frameworks, and ensure that operational readiness is firmly embedded across all Village projects. Ultimately, your comprehensive planning efforts will culminate at Games-time, where you will manage live Village operations to deliver a seamless and high-quality Games experience for all athletes and team officials.
