You're passionate about public service and ready to lead a team of professionals, share your expertise and guide decision-making to help shape the future of our State.

In this role, you'll:

You will shape the future of employee and service experience in one of Australia’s largest public sector organisations. As a senior leader within Transport’s newly established internal consulting function, you will drive enterprise wide customer and employee experience transformation, embedding CX principles and service design into the heart of how we operate.

You’ll lead the discovery, design, and delivery of initiatives that elevate experience, strengthen trust, and improve measurable business outcomes. Working closely with divisional leaders, delivery teams, and third party partners, you’ll integrate customer and employee insights, analytics, and CX best practice into strategic decision making and service delivery.

You will oversee research, analytics, and Voice of Customer programs, translating quantitative and qualitative insights into actionable improvements. You’ll facilitate high impact workshops and scenario based planning using outside-in thinking to align stakeholders and accelerate transformation.

A key part of the role is overseeing the design and administration of the TfNSW Service Delivery Model - establishing service performance metrics, frameworks, and ways of working that connect the Statewide Operating Model to measurable outcomes across the organisation.

You’ll champion CX advocacy and uplift organisational capability by introducing tools, templates, and internal consulting approaches that build maturity and strengthen cultural adoption of CX. Through evidence-based storytelling and clear narratives, you’ll influence senior leaders, shaping decisions and driving system-wide change.

In your first 12 months, you’ll establish consistent CX ways of working, embed the Service Delivery Model across key divisions, and deliver priority transformation projects that demonstrate clear value. Success will look like early wins, strong adoption of new frameworks, and growing confidence in CX as a core enabler of how Transport works.
