You'll collaborate with a high-performing team, build strong relationships across government and contribute to a team that leads whole-of-government communications and media.

How You'll Contribute
As Executive Officer, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the efficient operation of the Executive Director's office.

You'll also assist with preparing reports, briefs, presentations, and communication materials, and support the team's financial responsibilities, including procurement, invoicing, and budget reconciliations. Building and maintaining effective relationships with colleagues, stakeholders, and agencies across government will be key to your success. You'll also have the opportunity to develop and implement continuous improvements to systems, processes, and procedures.
