Shape the Future of Immunisation in Victoria.

  • Supporting equitable vaccine access
  • Strengthening the immunisation workforce

You'll contribute to high-profile projects and policy development, including :

This is a unique opportunity to work on meaningful public health initiatives, collaborate with passionate professionals, and help shape a healthier future for all.
