Our Department Values
Our values set the direction for what it means to work in our department.

They inform the standard and expectations of behaviours, skills and capabilities and the attributes we currently have, will continually work to achieve and develop, and that we use to acknowledge and attract, retain and recruit into our department.


A little bit about us


The
People, Culture and Change Division delivers four key functions; People through strategic support for employees, managers and the department on workforce and staffing matters; Communication and Change through media management, campaigns and strategic communications engagement; Transformation through business improvements, project support and property management; and support for our ministers and the department with Ministerial, Parliamentary and Cabinet services.

We deliver high quality products and services to our internal and external stakeholders, developing strategies and initiatives collaboratively and delivering the outcomes our stakeholders need.


The
Ministerial,
Parliamentary and Cabinet

The Branch provides support through a range of enabling services in two key areas:

  • Cabinet, Governmentwide Initiatives and Reporting coordinates and supports the portfolio's Cabinet business; collaboratively develops whole of portfolio positions on a range of Governmentwide priorities and supports internal and external reporting.

Ministerial & Parliamentary Services provide strategic advice on parliamentary business processes,


oversees the management and administration of parliamentary workflows including PDMS+, supports the Departmental Liaison Officers (DLOs) cohort and provides account management and coordinates overseas travel to Ministerial offices; and works in partnership with the DLOs to service our Ministers' offices.


The opportunities we have available
The Ministerial and Parliamentary Services (MPS) area has several Ministerial Officer positions available at the APS4 and APS5 level.

The ministerial officer role provides a great overview of the work and functions of our department and the Australian Government, along with the opportunity to develop and build networks with key stakeholders and see how the relationship between the department and our Minister's within our Portfolio works.
