Help shape the future of health in WA and join a strategic team driving systemwide clinical planning to improve care for west Australians
About Us: The Clinical Planning Unit is a strategic team within the Department of Health responsible for leading systemwide clinical service planning in collaboration with Health Service Providers and key stakeholders. Clinical service planning ensures that health services across Western Australia are aligned with population needs and strategic priorities and ensures the most effective use of available and future health resources such as funding, workforce, and infrastructure.
Position Profile: The Senior Project Officer is responsible for supporting the Clinical Planning Unit with systemwide clinical planning activities including the review, development and implementation of the Clinical Services Framework (CSF); clinical specialty reviews; inputs into demand and capacity modelling; inputs into major capital projects; and other priorities as they arise.
Eligibility to Apply: To be eligible for appointment, applicants must have a valid working visa (for fixed term appointments) or be an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or have a visa to live and work indefinitely in Australia (for permanent appointments).
Other Conditions: WA Health engages staff in positions of trust and responsibility. WA Health policies require applicants to undertake a criminal records screening and integrity checking as part of the appointment process. As well as undertaking a criminal record screening and integrity checking, you may also be required to undertake a working with children check (if required for the role) and a pre-employment health assessment. We may ask referees to comment on your integrity and past demonstration of ethical behaviour. Please note that adverse information does not necessarily disqualify an applicant but will be considered as part of the appointment process.
Whilst this selection process will initially be used to fill the above vacancy, it may also be used to fill other "similar" vacancies throughout the health service. In addition to this, should the successful applicant decline or vacate the advertised vacancy, then the next most suitable applicant may also be selected from this process. Both of these options remain valid for a period of twelve (12) months from when the authorised delegate endorses the recruitment decision.
