Mulloon Institute is seeking a results-driven Project Delivery Manager to lead the coordination of Mulloon’s diverse suite of services and grant delivery programs. The Project Delivery Manager is a critical role within Mulloon Institute and Mulloon Consulting, responsible for planning, coordinating and delivering a diverse portfolio of projects across Mulloon’s suite of program services relating to community capacity building, landscape rehydration, and natural landscape function repair.
Operating as the central coordination point for project delivery, the role ensures multiple concurrent projects are effectively planned, resourced and delivered to achieve safe, high-quality and commercially sustainable outcomes, while adapting to changing conditions such as weather, site constraints and stakeholder availability.

- Complex Project Coordination & Planning
Describe your experience managing multiple concurrent projects with competing priorities. How do you approach planning, sequencing and resource allocation to ensure successful delivery?

Describe your experience working in environments where project conditions can change (e.g. weather, site or stakeholder constraints). How do you adapt plans and maintain delivery outcomes under changing conditions?
- Use of Project Management Systems as a Planning Tool
Describe your experience with project management systems (e.g. ProjectWorks, MS Project or similar). How have you used these systems to plan, schedule and manage resources rather than just track progress?
- Safety, Practicality & Decision-Making
Describe your approach to managing safety in project delivery. How do you make decisions when balancing safety, time and cost pressures?
- Alignment to Purpose, Values & Working Style
