Transformation Manager

About Kapitol

Kapitol is an innovation-driven construction company based in Melbourne, set to outpace and disrupt the industry. As one of Australia’s fastest-growing design and construct enterprises, we proudly combine a fresh approach with decades of expertise.

The result is smarter, safer and more agile building solutions across a diverse portfolio including large-scale commercial, residential, education and high-tech industrial projects.

About the Role (3-month Contract)

Reporting to the Head of Strategy & Transformation,  the Transformation Manager will play a key role in driving a portfolio of priority business initiatives across Kapitol.

Working closely with senior leaders and initiative owners, you’ll bring structure, pace and accountability to transformation activity across areas including Technology, Safety and our broader Business Operating Model, Reporting & Governance.

This is not a pure strategy role. We’re looking for someone who can quickly understand the business problem, establish the right approach and work alongside functional leaders to drive initiatives through to execution.

Key responsibilities:

• Lead and coordinate multiple strategic transformation initiatives across the business
• Partner with functional leaders to translate strategic priorities into clear delivery plans, milestones and outcomes
• Establish appropriate governance, reporting and accountability across transformation workstreams
• Monitor progress, risks, dependencies and key decisions, proactively addressing roadblocks
• Provide clear and concise updates to senior leadership on initiative performance and priorities
• Challenge existing ways of working and identify opportunities to improve business processes, operating models and performance
• Bring structure to ambiguous or evolving business problems and support teams through implementation
• Support the development of practical, scalable solutions that can be embedded across the business

About You

• Strong experience in strategy, transformation, strategic initiatives or business improvement
• Ideally 5+ years’ experience, with previous management consulting experience highly regarded
• Demonstrated ability to lead multiple transformation initiatives from strategy through to execution
• Strong experience developing governance, operating models, performance reporting or business improvement frameworks
• Commercially minded with strong analytical and problem-solving capability
• Confident working directly with senior leaders and challenging thinking where required
• Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-growth environment with evolving priorities
• Able to bring clarity and structure to ambiguous problems without overcomplicating the solution
• Highly collaborative, pragmatic and hands-on in your approach

Experience within FMCG, logistics, construction, infrastructure, private equity-backed or other fast-moving operational environments will be highly regarded.

Why This Role

This is a unique opportunity to work directly with Kapitol’s senior leadership team and influence some of the business’s most important transformation priorities.

You’ll have the opportunity to work across multiple functions, take ownership of meaningful initiatives and help shape how a rapidly growing business operates as it continues to scale.

For someone who enjoys moving between strategy and execution, solving complex problems and seeing the impact of their work quickly, this role offers significant scope and exposure.

This is an initial 3-month, full-time contract, based in our Melbourne CBD office, with an immediate start and potential for extension.

Why Kapitol

At Kapitol, we are redefining construction through innovation, technology, and an uncompromising commitment to excellence. With a diversified portfolio across multiple industry sectors and a rapidly growing national presence, Kapitol offers a dynamic environment where forward-thinking ideas thrive.

You’ll join a high-performing team that embraces cutting-edge technology, values collaboration, and is driven to deliver exceptional outcomes on every project.
