About us

Transport for NSW keeps our State moving by providing safe, integrated and efficient transport systems. We put our customers at the centre of everything we do – and we do a lot. We connect people, communities and industry and manage how they use our road, rail and maritime networks and services, and even active modes like walking and cycling. The work we do connects the journeys you take every day.

We are a state government organisation made up of more than 28,000 people and we're in the middle of delivering the largest transport infrastructure program in Australia's history. We work across planning, policy and procurement, harnessing data and technology to develop smarter and more adaptive transport solutions.

That means job opportunities in metropolitan and regional areas right across NSW – you have the chance to be part of creating a lasting legacy that will benefit generations to come.

About the team

The Infrastructure and Place (IP) division is in the process of delivering an ambitious and once-in-a generation multi-billion program of public infrastructure works which will ease congestion, improve safety, create new places and connect communities for generations to come. We are dedicated and passionate team that is proud of the work we do and the supportive and flexible team culture we have built.

The Transport Asset Revitalisation Program (TARP) has been established by TfNSW to evaluate and prioritise sites that are no longer needed for transport purposes. It involves extensive collaboration across the TfNSW cluster and with other government agencies.

TARP will enable TfNSW to repurpose land no longer needed for transport services to contribute to the financial sustainability of TfNSW, better realise transport, land use and place-making outcomes in line with State and local policy objectives, facilitate the delivery of new and improved transport services in TARP sites and ensure alignment with key state and local government strategies including the Metropolis of Three Cities, Greater Sydney Region Plan; State Infrastructure Strategy 2018-38; Future Transport 2056; and council Local Strategic Planning Statements.

The opportunity

The primary purpose is to lead a team that manages the process to clear sites so they are available for transaction, including managing relationships with internal and external stakeholders to identify and resolve competing uses for land and to define and cater for transport requirements in the transaction process. This role also manages internal land transaction processes, including statutory processes needed to create title.

Develop and maintain strong working relationships with all relevant Clearance stakeholders. This includes the regular coordination of Clearance meetings such as landowner updates, Change Configuration Board (CCB), Station Working Group, and TARP Project Working Group (PWG) meetings.

Ensure appropriate and adequate collaboration is being undertaken within the immediate team to meet Clearance program and proactively address clearance issues (i.e. Project Lead, Transaction Lead, Planning Team, and Survey Team).
