Agency Overview

Create Infrastructure, the NSW Government’s cultural infrastructure program management office, is responsible for the successful delivery of significant cultural infrastructure projects like Powerhouse Parramatta, Walsh Bay Arts Precinct Redevelopment, Sydney Modern and many others in planning and delivery across NSW. We play a project sponsor role throughout the development and delivery of our projects, driving them through feasibility, planning and design development, and working closely with delivery partners during construction.

Key purpose

Supporting a culture of creativity is essential for NSW to succeed in a global innovation economy. For culture to truly flourish, it needs a home – places where it can be created, shared and enjoyed. Cultural Infrastructure – theatres, galleries, museums, libraries, archives, community halls, cinemas, public art and outdoor event spaces – brings culture into our communities and makes it accessible for all of us.

New South Wales is amid a once-in-a-generation renewal of its cultural infrastructure, delivering contemporary, relevant world-class infrastructure to strengthen the depth and quality of our cultural sector.

You will undertake a range of administrative tasks to support the delivery of cultural infrastructure projects, funding programs and precinct planning activities associated with the Government’s Cultural Infrastructure Plan 2025+.
