The Digital Office (DO) is a newly created business unit under the leadership of the Chief Digital Officer. The DO’s purpose is to drive CSIRO’s digital and data capabilities to maximise CSIRO’s impact and value. The DO is responsible for uplifting the governance frameworks, processes, and practices which ensure effective governance of CSIRO’s strategic investments in digital programs (the digital portfolio).

The DO is establishing a Digital Portfolio Management Office  (DPMO) to support the governance, assurance and reporting of the digital portfolio. It will support the effective functioning of the recently established Digital Steering Committee, a subcommittee of the Executive Team, and its Program Boards to oversee progress of programs, monitor risks and issues, and manage decision-making.

The DPMO requires a Portfolio Support Officer to support the efficient and effective operations of the DPMO. Key responsibilities will include coordinating preparation of program status reports with Program Managers, scheduling meetings, preparing meetings packs and agendas, taking minutes and actions, maintaining a portfolio risk register, and contributing to the uplift of portfolio governance maturity on an ongoing basis.
