- Contribute to shaping Corrections Victoria's culture as a member of the Corrections Victoria leadership team, including supporting ongoing cultural reform across the prison system and the achievement of the vision for Safer Prisons, Safer People, Safer Communities.
- Support Prison General Manager's to lead and manage the operational performance of prisons, including working closely with corporate staff on human resources, finance, health and safety and industrial issues.
- Provide technical expertise, advice and leadership in the delivery of custodial operations, including the delivery of quality outcomes and the development and negotiation of significant prison innovation and reform.

**About you**

To be successful in this role, you will have:

- Recognised knowledge, specialist expertise and a record of achievement at a state-wide or national level in developing and implementing a reform agenda in a complex operational environment.
- A proven record and high-level skills in working within government and with a diverse group of stakeholders on complex cultural and workforce issues and the ability to develop innovative programs and responses to provide a sound basis for best practice custodial services in Victoria.
