Our QAS Vision is 'Inspiring Extraordinary Sporting Success' and the performance of Queensland athletes at the recent Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games was a phenomenal demonstration of that.

We are on the runway to Paris 2024, Los Angeles 2028 and then onto an incredible opportunity with a home Games here in Brisbane, with the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

At the QAS we support 450+ pre-elite and elite athletes from talented juniors through to Olympic, Paralympic and World Championships medallists to win on the world stage.

We support both in-house squad programmes, partnership programmes with National Sporting Organisations and/or individual athletes who are on medal winning trajectories for international success.

We have a bold new 2032 High Performance Strategy to propel us forward to enable more medal winning moments by Queensland athletes and ultimately inspire the State and the Nation ahead of a home Games in Brisbane 2032.

If you have a deep desire to contribute to something transformational, of State and National significance, and are committed to continuous improvement, it's an exciting time to join our organisation on an important mission.

In this role you will have the opportunity to work with the Athlete Wellbeing and Engagement (AW&E) Team and Program at the QAS in alignment with the new Vision, Strategy and Values.

The AW&E Programs' primary objective is to ensure QAS enables an enriching and holistic athlete high performance journey.

In this role, you will work with AW&E Lead and relevant partners to ensure QAS athletes are effectively inducted, equipped with the skills to thrive in HP environments, and are enabled to be inspiring role models for the State and the Nation.

A special focus will be in supporting the Team to deliver for the emerging and developing elite athletes who are 4-8 years away from reaching the Podium.

For this Athlete Wellbeing and Engagement Team role, we're looking for:

  • Understand the needs of athletes while responding to the requirements of elite coaches and other stakeholders, who seek to be internationally competitive. Consider wider organisational objectives when making decisions. Demonstrate the ability to encourage a strong athlete-focus and build understanding of elite coach and athlete perspective within the AW&E team. Drive continuous improvement by identifying and implementing improved ways of delivering the AW&E program. Demonstrate the ability to implement change by influencing stakeholders. Manage internal and external relationships, including the ability to build networks and work collaboratively with stakeholders in a high-performance sport environment. Proactively recognise a need and takes accountability for implementing an improvement and/or change; looks for opportunities to mobilise others to implement new solutions. Provide strategic advice that is rigorously considered and supported by a clear rationale. Model professional and ethical behaviour and be viewed as trustworthy, honourable, truthful and respectful.
