Senior Project Manager - Contract

SENIOR PROJECT MANAGER

Finance & Billing Implementation

About the Organisation

A confidential, multi-organisation initiative currently progressing a major Finance and Billing system from RFP through to full implementation. This is a complex, high-visibility programme requiring genuine cross-organisational leadership and not a single-stakeholder delivery role.

About the Role

This 6-month contract sits at a critical stage. The project is moving from RFP into vendor selection and delivery. You'll lead the implementation through to live operation, working across 5+ stakeholder organisations with differing priorities, governance models, and reporting lines. Weekly travel to Wellington involved.

You'll be responsible for:

• Leading the project through vendor selection into full implementation
• Establishing governance structures across multiple stakeholder groups
• Driving planning, mobilisation and delivery
• Managing vendor performance and delivery outcomes
• Reporting clearly on status, risk, issues and dependencies
• Aligning multiple organisations around a shared delivery outcome

Skills and Experience

• Valid NZ work rights
• 10+ years delivering large-scale technology projects
• Proven enterprise system implementation experience - ERP (SAP, Oracle, etc) or Financials or Billing systems highly regarded
• Experience operating across complex, multi-organisation environments
• Strong senior executive stakeholder management
• Comfortable bringing structure to ambiguous, unscoped environments
• Solid governance, risk and issue management capability

Benefits

• Hybrid working (Tauranga or Wellington + WFH)
• 6-month initial contract with strong likelihood of extension
• High-impact, multi-organisation programme, genuine career-defining scope
• Immediate start
• Work directly with senior executives across multiple organisations

How to Apply

If you've led complex, multi-stakeholder technology implementations and you bring structure to ambiguity, this is worth a conversation.

Apply with your CV & contact Vinnie Angadi at Vinnie.Angadi@randstaddigital.co.nz for a confidential discussion.

This role is not suited to PMs without enterprise system implementation experience, or those who haven't operated across multi-organisation governance structures. Please self-select accordingly.
