  • Develop the business unit's capacity to translate analysis and research into practice, allowing internal and external stakeholders to have relevant evidence that can be used to improve frontline services and client outcomes. This includes preparing analysis reports, presenting at conferences and workshops, and representing on DCJ on working groups and committees.
  • Provide proactive and evidencebased advice to the business unit leader, Director and/or the Executive Director as statistical analysis and modelling projects are developed and undertaken to ensure that the methodology is robust and will contribute to the identification, monitoring and improvement of client outcomes.
  • Support the process of continuous improvement in the development and use of evidence in decision making keeping up to date with new developments in statistics and data science, sharing learnings, developing tools to embed evidence in others work and exemplifying best practice.
  • Liaise and work across DCJ Divisions, other government agencies and nongovernment stakeholders to ensure effective interface between program development, planning, service design and policy implementation.
