Shape the Future of Emergency Services in South Australia | Based in Adelaide, South Australia

The South Australian Fire and Emergency Services Commission (SAFECOM) operates under the guidance of its Board, and works with SA's fire and emergency service organisations to ensure that volunteers and employees within the emergency services sector (ESS) are provided with the resources and support they need to carry out their vital work. SAFECOM also plays a leadership role in supporting emergency capabilities across the state and developing new initiatives to roll out across the ESS.

In collaboration with all stakeholders, you will be heavily involved in initiating exciting advancements of sector improvements, and in maintaining key capabilities such as Public Information and Warning Systems and the State Emergency Information Call Centre Capability. This role also involves engagement with relevant volunteer associations and unions.
