Discover life-giving possibilities

About the role  

 

As the Mobiles Project Manager, you’ll play a key role in expanding Lifeblood’s mobile donation capability by leading the design, delivery, and implementation of projects that support growth across our mobile collection network.

You’ll be responsible for delivering two significant projects: the procurement and rollout of portable buildings, and self-drive Donor Mobile Units (DMUs), expanding Lifeblood’s mobile fleet and helping us reach more donors, in more locations.

You’ll lead projects end-to-end from scoping and scheduling through to delivery, commissioning, and handover,  partnering with internal teams and external suppliers to ensure delivery stays on track. You’ll manage budgets, reporting, and governance, while proactively identifying risks and ensuring compliance within a highly regulated environment.

Success in this role means delivering high-quality outcomes, efficiently and on time, with clear communication and strong stakeholder alignment throughout.

 

Sound interesting? Here’s what we’re looking for: 

 

  • Experience delivering end-to-end projects, ideally involving physical assets, infrastructure, or builds
  • Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage timelines, budgets, and suppliers
  • Confidence working with contractors, consultants, and cross-functional teams
  • A practical, solutions-focused mindset with strong attention to detail
  • A genuine commitment to safety, quality, and doing things the right way
  • Experience managing CapEx budgets, with an understanding of delegation frameworks and governance
  • Relevant tertiary qualification (or equivalent experience) in a related field

 

This is a 12 month fixed-term contract, full-time opportunity with a hybrid working environment. Lifeblood is proud to accommodate flexible working and we are open to conversations around what this means to you.
