About Nordex

Nordex is one of the world’s leading wind turbine manufacturers, with a strong and growing presence across Australia and New Zealand. With a significant pipeline of wind projects across the Oceania region, Nordex continues to expand its local capability to support the successful delivery of utility-scale renewable energy projects.

Morson Edge is working exclusively with Nordex to recruit a Project Manager – Operational Readiness to join its Project Management organisation.

About the Role

As part of Nordex’s continued growth across Oceania, this newly created role will focus on strengthening the frameworks, processes, governance and tools that underpin successful project delivery.

Acting as the link between Nordex’s global and regional teams, you will adapt and optimise global project management practices for the Australian and New Zealand markets, while driving greater consistency, operational readiness and continuous improvement across the project lifecycle.
This is an opportunity to have a broad impact across Nordex’s project portfolio rather than being responsible for the delivery of a single project.

Key Responsibilities
  • Establish and continuously improve the Project Management Readiness framework across Oceania projects.
  • Develop and implement project delivery processes, governance structures, project controls and best-practice standards aligned with Nordex global requirements.
  • Ensure project teams are fully prepared for project execution through effective readiness reviews and planning.
  • Act as the interface between global and regional Project Management teams, adapting global standards to local requirements.
  • Identify gaps, risks and opportunities across project delivery processes and implement practical improvements.
  • Support project teams with standardised tools, templates, reporting and governance.
  • Drive consistency and operational excellence across the project lifecycle.
  • Capture lessons learned and embed continuous improvement across future projects.
  • Support the implementation and adoption of new Project Management systems, processes and initiatives.
Qualifications & Experience
  • Strong experience within project management, project controls, operational readiness, PMO or project delivery environments.
  • Experience working on large-scale infrastructure, energy, construction or similarly complex projects.
  • Strong understanding of project governance, processes, controls and project lifecycle management.
  • Demonstrated experience developing or improving project management frameworks and processes.
  • Ability to work effectively across regional and global teams and influence multiple stakeholders.
  • Strong analytical, organisational and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management capability.
  • Experience within renewable energy, wind or major infrastructure projects would be highly regarded.
Benefits
  • Competitive salary package.
  • Annual performance-based bonus.
  • Flexible and hybrid working arrangements.
  • Opportunity to work with a leading global wind turbine manufacturer.
  • Exposure to major wind energy projects across Australia and New Zealand.
  • Work within an international organisation with strong career development opportunities.
  • Access to global expertise, systems and project management best practice.
  • Be part of Nordex’s continued growth and expansion across the Oceania renewable energy market.
Nordex offers the opportunity to join a global organisation playing a major role in the energy transition, while working in a collaborative and international environment. With a strong project pipeline and continued investment in the Oceania business, this role provides the opportunity to directly influence how projects are delivered across the region.
