Every staff member is expected to role model leadership behaviours. This role requires the leadership capabilities of an individual contributor as outlined in the Leadership competencies for Queensland booklet.

Reasonable Adjustment

All applicants are encouraged to advise the panel of any additional support or reasonable adjustments (i.e., building access, wheelchair access, interpreting services, etc.) required during the recruitment process to ensure they can demonstrate their ability to meet the inherent requirements of the role.

  • Citizenship/visa: to be appointed to a position, you must be an Australian citizen, have permanent residency status or a visa permitting you to work in Australia.
  • A probationary period may apply to successful applicants to permanent roles who are external to the public service (unless advised otherwise), after which time confirmation of appointment will be dependent upon satisfactory performance review.
