The Transition Branch delivers policy, program and services, and works closely with a range of external and inter-departmental stakeholders to progress its work.

To succeed in this role, you will draw on a sound understanding of policy development and program delivery, and how it applies to veteran issues or be able to quickly acquire an understanding.

- Triage and manage group mailboxes, including responding to moderately complex enquiries and requests for information
- Support procurement processes and ongoing contract management requirements
- Support the broader team in delivery of section and branch priorities.
- Ability to deliver against program objectives, through effective team and program management, a focus on operational governance, continuous improvement and evaluation and assurance
- Work collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders
- Strong organisational skills including the ability to effectively prioritise to meet deadlines, manage competing tasks and demonstrated initiative and problem solving skills.

**Eligibility**
- Under section 22(8) of the Public Service Act 1999, employees must be Australian citizens to be employed in the Australian Public Service (APS).
- All applicants external to DVA offered employment will be required to successfully undergo a pre-engagement screening check, even if they have a security clearance. The screening check is conducted in accordance with the Australian Government Protective Security Policy Framework requirements.

**Mandatory Requirements**
- Ability to obtain and maintain an Australian Government Security Vetting Agency (AGSVA) clearance to Baseline status
- Ability to conduct overnight travel (as required).
- A current Australian Driver’s License

**Notes**

Where a non-ongoing position is offered, the role will be filled for an initial specified term of up to18 months.

A merit pool of suitable applicants may be created which may be used to fill future ongoing and non-ongoing vacancies should they become available over the next 18 months.
