Perth, Western Australia Department of Health (WA Health) Full time

CRVCID No. 660304

This is a Fixed Term Full Time appointment for five years.

WA Health embraces diversity and is committed to eliminating all forms of discrimination in the provision of our service.

WA Health supports flexible working practices within the context of a quality health service. WA Health is committed to a smoke free environment across all buildings, grounds and vehicles.

WA Health is committed to growing the Aboriginal workforce as a part of WA Health's Aboriginal Workforce Policy. As a measure to achieve equality, Section 51 of the Equal Opportunity Act 1984 applies to this position. Aboriginal people are encouraged to apply.

Eligibility to Apply: To be eligible for appointment, applicants must have a valid working visa (for fixed term appointments) or be an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or have a visa to live and work indefinitely in Australia (for permanent appointments).

Other Conditions: WA Health engages staff in positions of trust and responsibility. WA Health policies require applicants to undertake criminal records screening and integrity checking as part of the appointment process. Referees may also be asked to comment on an applicant's integrity and past demonstration of ethical behaviour.

Whilst this selection process will initially be used to fill the above vacancy, it may also be used to fill other "similar" vacancies throughout the health service. In addition to this, should the successful applicant decline or vacate the advertised vacancy, then the next most suitable applicant may also be selected from this process. Both of these options remain valid for a period of twelve (12) months from when the authorised delegate endorses the recruitment decision.

Position Profile: The Chief Nursing and Midwifery Officer (CNMO) is responsible for the provision of expert professional and strategic advice to the Assistant Director General and the Director General on all matters relating to nursing and midwifery, including professional, workforce and policy issues.

The CNMO leads the strategic direction of the nursing and midwifery professions through engagement with the public and private sector of health and education providers in order to build and maintain a safe and effective nursing and midwifery workforce that is aligned with the health service delivery requirements of Western Australia.

The role contributes nationally and internationally to support the WA Health agenda with respect to building international health capacity.
