Meaningful careers, that make a real difference

41 South is growing, and we're hiring. We're looking for talented project, program and change professionals who thrive in complexity, and deliver positive outcomes.

Why 41 South?

  • Work that matters. We focus our efforts on supporting the public good: work where successful outcomes will make the world our children grow up in a better one for all of us.

  • Talent over headcount. We hire for talent and train for skill, then get out of the way so brilliant people can do brilliant work.

  • Senior work, from day one. You'll lead real delivery for government clients, not sit at the edges of someone else's project.

  • A direct line to the top. You work directly with our Managing Director, with regular one-to-ones and honest feedback to support your development.

  • Help build the firm. You're joining early. Your ideas, your case studies and the people you bring with you will shape the future of 41 South.

  • An AI-native firm. Our own AI Operating System takes care of the admin, so you can spend more time on the work that counts.

  • A clear path to grow. A transparent career path from Consultant to Principal, a development plan from your first 90 days, and support to continually grow your skills, qualifications and professional certifications.

Who we're looking for

We're building a team of talented practitioners across project, program and portfolio management and organisational change. Over the next year we're hiring at Consultant, Senior Consultant, Manager and Senior Manager level.

You'll probably have:

•      experience delivering complex projects, programs or change in government or a similarly demanding environment

•      the judgement to lead with the decision, the risk or the ask, and to tell a client what they need to hear

•      a commitment to our values: Integrity, Client first, No surprises, Simplicity and Community

•      Australian citizenship, and the ability to obtain and maintain an Australian Government security clearance

We're based in Canberra, and we welcome people based elsewhere, particularly in NSW. Team members outside the ACT can expect to join us in Canberra at least four times a year.

What you can expect

  • A structured first 90 days, with goals you set with us and a Day 90 review

  • Regular one-to-ones, a monthly team catch-up and a face-to-face Quarterly Meeting

  • A competitive salary package, reviewed annually

  • Work with senior government leaders on projects that make a difference

  • True ownership, autonomy and responsibility in shaping your own career and driving the direction of the company
