Background

About Nathan Grieve

I’m a PRINCE2 practitioner & Bachelor of Economics qualified professional with 20 years of experience working in Government & not-for-profit organisations in the UK & Australia. My Project & Business Management expertise is shaped by roles at highly respected organisations such as the UK’s Parliamentary & Health Service Ombudsman, NSW Department of Premier & Cabinet (DPC), NSW Department of Planning & Environment (DPIE), Transport for NSW (TfNSW) and the Ministry of Health (MoH)- At the MoH, I work on one of the largest change projects in Australia. We have just replaced a 20+ year old system with a contemporary Enterprise Data Warehouse, which will now underpin the monitoring & mandatory reporting requirements of the entire Ministry. This complex change program involves supporting a huge number of diverse stakeholders through various aspects of their change journey- At DPC, I worked in the Premier’s Implementation Unit & delivered a Tableau Dashboard for then Premier Mike Baird to showcase his 12 Premier’s Priorities- At DPIE, I had the privilege of working in the Office of the Secretary for 18 months, contributing to strategically significant & sensitive projects. This experience sharpened my strategic thinking & problem-solving skills in demanding environments- Within TfNSW, I had a key role in establishing the foundations of a new branch in the People & Culture Division. As Business Manager, I directly supported the Executive Director while also supporting five Directors and the wider branch of over 250 people. I love working with people. I’ve learnt that engaging with stakeholders at all levels & supporting their individual needs is essential for success. My communication & influencing skills - along with my natural collaborative, consultative & nurturing nature - have consistently contributed to my success. My hands-on approach & adaptability ensures I’m particularly effective when a project is experiencing high levels of change. No job is too big or small. I’m very much a team player who is always keen to do whatever is necessary for success. Throughout my career, I've seamlessly transitioned between the roles of Project & Business Manager, accumulating extensive experience in both technical & non-technical settings in the UK & Australia. This versatility allows me to bring a holistic perspective to any project. My dedication & expertise have been recognised through a Secretary's Award nomination for my work on the NSW Premier's Priorities Dashboard Project and a Performance Award from the UK's Parliamentary Ombudsman.
