The gap between doing the work in Canberra and being paid for the work is usually a recognised certification on the CV. Canberra draws hiring from Banking and Financial Services, Mining and Resources and Technology and Telecom, where structured delivery methods are expected rather than optional. The roles that open most often carry titles such as Project Manager, Senior Project Manager and Program Manager.
