Brisbane, Australia Parliamentary Service Full time

Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where you can use your strong research, writing, administrative and stakeholder engagement skills to make a difference? Consider joining the team that supports the vital work of parliamentary committees in Queensland. Committees work on matters of importance in Queensland, ranging from youth justice, environmental law, regional industry development, transport, human rights, legislative principles and almost everything in between.
The Committee Office provides high-quality research and administrative and procedural support to several parliamentary committees, who scrutinise executive government action including legislation, and contribute to policy and legislative development. Supporting stakeholder engagement in this process is a key to our work. As a staff member of the Committee Office, you will have the opportunity to:

- Support committee consideration of proposed legislation (Bills) for their policy implications, their compliance with fundamental legislative principles and human rights, and for subordinate legislation, lawfulness;
- Support committees to examine the estimates, public accounts, public works and performance of various departments and statutory bodies, assessing their integrity, economy, efficiency and effectiveness;
- Support committees to undertake inquiries on matters relating to their portfolio areas of responsibility, or on any issue referred to them by the Legislative Assembly or under an Act; and
- Support committees to conduct hearings, consultations, and site visits, prepare briefings and reports, and communicate with stakeholders.

**To be successful in this role, you will need to have**:

- A relevant tertiary qualification;
- Demonstrated ability to conduct research and analysis on complex issues, using a range of resources and tools, and to present findings in a clear, concise and accurate manner. Excellent writing skills are a must;
- Demonstrated ability to work effectively in a team environment, as well as independently, under pressure and to tight deadlines;
- Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively with a range of stakeholders, both orally and in writing, using appropriate language and style;
- High level of attention to detail, accuracy and professionalism; and
- Knowledge of parliamentary processes and procedures, particularly relating to committees, or the ability to acquire such knowledge quickly.
