At Tennis Australia, we’re creating a more playful world through tennis – for everyone.

We’re committed to reflecting the communities we work and play in. We strongly encourage applications from women, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, LGBTQI+ individuals, people with disability, and people from culturally diverse backgrounds.

• Partnering closely with Product, Engineering and stakeholders to align priorities and deliver customer-focused outcomes
• Driving continuous improvement through delivery metrics, identifying bottlenecks and uplift opportunities.
• Coordinating cross-functional teams, vendors and stakeholders to ensure clear ownership and accountability

About you

To be successful in this role you will:

• Bring proven experience as a Delivery Lead, Scrum Master, or Agile delivery professional in digital or technology environments.
• Have strong Agile delivery capability, including facilitating ceremonies, breaking work into releasable increments and driving a frequent-release mindset.
• Be skilled in stakeholder and delivery management, building trusted relationships and clearly communicating progress, risks and blockers.
• Demonstrate experience leading and coaching high-performing, cross-functional teams with a strong culture of continuous improvement.
• Excel at managing cross-team dependencies, ensuring alignment and predictable delivery across squads and value streams.
• Lead by example, modelling strong delivery practices and uplifting ways of working across the broader technology function.
• Use delivery and flow metrics (including DORA) to drive insights, optimise performance, and improve outcomes.
• Thrive in complex environments, influencing outcomes and balancing competing priorities.

What’s to love?

• Career development with a range of formal education and on the job training opportunities
