The purpose of this position is to be responsible for achieving effective strategic advocacy, policy and communication goals. This includes effective leadership, people management, task management, risk, compliance and financial performance of the team.

The role will be required to work with both the Manager for Governance Performance Quality Services (GPQS) who leads our risk, compliance and performance requirements and the Manager for Blueprint for an Aboriginal specific homelessness system in Victoria who leads the secretariat function and its implementation.

The role will provide inspiring leadership and people management support to their staff, oversee the day-to-day work of the team and will operate within the AHV Delegations Register.
