- Coordinate inputs from across multiple stakeholder groups for the integrated venue timeline, mapping the key deliverables for site and infrastructure development.
- Support the production of key documentation aligned to license conditions including event-specific licenses and variations for the designated competition venue.
- Own the information management responsibilities for the Venue Management Team, ensuring documentation is stored according to agreed policies and is accessible to all required stakeholders.
- Facilitate site visits in conjunction with the Venue Owners, OC, and CGAs.
- Provide inputs into the project management system, identifying and documenting operational planning and delivery challenges and issues as they arise, ensuring actions are identified and followed up on to ensure timely issue resolution.
- Support the delivery of all venue operations to the highest standards and in accordance with the OC and Commonwealth Sport requirements.
- Deliver daily venue operations, ensuring compliance with all health, safety, and security standards, including adherence to relevant legislation and Games policies.
