  • Collaborate with Product & Tech teams to develop systems, tools and digital solutions that enhance operations and deliver exceptional customer experiences.
  • Support executive decision-making with clear reports, dashboards, and insights.
Okay, let's talk about you:
  • You have at least 5 years experience in strategic and operational projects, with a background in management consulting, investment banking or similar
  • Experience within a high growth business or start up will be beneficial!
  • You have a strategic mindset with strong commercial acumen, able to break down complex problems, build structured solutions, and drive execution.
  • You are analytical and data driven when it comes to decision making, and experienced analysing trends, building models, and turning insights into action

What's in it for you?
  • Be a part of a high performing team, where curiosity, learning and tackling high-impact challenges are just another day at the office.
  • Enjoy our open-plan office space, complete with fresh coffee, a choice of snacks and Friday beers to keep you supercharged.
  • We wouldn’t be a car business if we didn’t give you some $$ off our Carma cars, parts and NRMA cover.
