Company Description

We're one of Australia’s most trusted brands and proudly member-owned, with our people and community at the heart of everything we do. From our legendary Roadside assistance to electric vehicle charging networks, the NRMA Group also owns and operates NRMA Parks and Resorts, SIXT car rental, My Fast Ferry & Fantasea Cruises. That’s why a career with us means creating the future you want, while helping the NRMA Group to keep moving Australia forward. Together, we can make a difference.


Job Description

  • Exciting opportunity to lead strategic initiatives focused on sustainable and social impact
  • Accelerate your strategic thinking and career trajectory with an ex-MBB leader and internal mobility pathways across our diverse business
  • Enjoy flexible work options and a host of NRMA employee benefits including travel and lifestyle discounts.

What You’ll Do

Are you ready to shape the future of mobility and make a difference where it matters most?   

Join the NRMA as a Senior Strategy Manager where you will have the opportunity to lead initiatives on topics ranging from electric vehicles and vehicle-to-grid pilots to NRMA’s iconic membership program, to exploring opportunities to grow our Travel portfolio.

As a mutual, we work a little differently to other corporates – with all our decisions considered from the lenses of member impact and societal impact, as well as economic impact.

As the Senior Strategy Manager, you will work closely with the Head of our Strategy & ESG team to shape and deliver NRMA’s enterprise and portfolio strategies. You will lead strategic projects across our group of businesses, applying structured problem-solving, analytical rigour and effective stakeholder engagement to deliver high-impact recommendations. Your key responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

  • Develop and periodically refresh NRMA’s enterprise, portfolio and BU strategies, working with senior executives
  • Plan and deliver annual strategy offsites for executive and Board
  • Optimise and facilitate the annual planning process and quarterly business reviews (where required) in partnership with Group Finance, while supporting divisional leaders to refine strategic priorities and develop effective and aligned OKRs
  • Lead strategic projects from conception to execution, to drive growth and improve commercial performance across the NRMA group including developing new membership propositions, conducting commercial diagnostics and shaping transformation initiatives, conducting analysis and making well-reasoned recommendations on major decisions like investments in new businesses or capabilities and collaborating with cross-functional teams to stand up new business opportunities
  • Embed “shared value” principles into corporate strategy (optimization of member, societal and economic value), and work with the ESG team to deliver groupwide impact
  • Build relationships with external stakeholders to stay ahead of market trends and inform strategic direction.

This role is a full-time permanent opportunity with a hybrid work arrangement where you will be required to work across our Sydney CBD and Sydney Olympic Park offices as well as some work from home. 

What You'll Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree required with MBA or relevant postgraduate qualification desirable
  • Must have 4+ years of professional experience in management consulting and/or Corporate Strategy role, including at least 2 years at reputable strategy consultancy
  • Industry experience ideally in digital, transport, energy, tourism, industrial, retail or other consumer industries
  • Strong analytical and quantitative skills with a commercial focus in key areas including growth strategy, M&A, digital strategy & transformation and product innovation
  • Proven ability to lead projects independently, build relationships quickly and influence stakeholders at all levels
  • A proactive and entrepreneurial approach to developing opportunities with the persistence and creativity to find solutions to challenges along the way
  • Willingness for being “hands-on” and fluent in the strategy technical toolkit including Excel modelling, data visualization, sharp Powerpoint storytelling, AI for research/analysis/thought partnership
  • Ability to switch effortlessly between granular analysis and big-picture recommendations, with excellent structured communication across all mediums
  • Collaborative and curious, with a strong growth mindset and ability to absorb and act on feedback.

What's in it for you?

At the NRMA we aren’t just about discounts (although you do get these too). We offer benefits to help make work and life just right for you! 

  • Progressive flexibility, leave and well-being benefits to balance all of life's priorities
  • Travel discounts on SIXT car rental, cruises, and accommodation at our award-winning NRMA Holiday Parks and Resorts
