- Coordinate the development of Board and Sub-Committee papers, ensuring alignment with governance systems and action items.
- Develop processes to manage the flow of information to and from the Director, ensuring knowledge management is consistent, timely, and efficient.

- Exceptional communication skills with the ability to speak with confidence on behalf of and representing senior executives.
- A proactive approach with strong problem-solving, analytical, and influencing skills, with the ability to manage through influence rather than authority.

**Desirable Experience**:

- Broad experience in advisory roles within government, business, or peak body organisations.
- Experience in supporting Boards and executives, such as a Company Secretary role.
