Greater Adelaide SA, Australia Department of Industry, Science, Energy & Resources Full time

Adelaide
- Job closes 18/2/24

**About the Department**:
The Department of Industry, Science and Resources and our broader portfolio are integral to the Australian Government’s economic agenda. Our purpose is to help the government build a better future for all Australians through enabling a productive, resilient and sustainable economy, enriched by science and technology. We do this by:

- Growing innovative & competitive businesses, industries and regions
- Investing in science and technology
- Strengthening the resources sector.

**About the team**:
The Australian Radioactive Waste Agency (ARWA) is leading the responsible management and safe storage and disposal of Australia’s radioactive waste. A key element of ARWA’s program is the delivery of disposal pathways for Australia’s radioactive waste which will provide purpose-built, highly engineered solutions to manage radioactive waste from sources such as nuclear medicine production.

At ARWA, our dynamic, multidisciplinary team has a unique opportunity to drive the future of Australia’s expertise in safe and secure radioactive waste management, to protect people and the environment for generations to come. Our people come from diverse backgrounds, nationalities, and cultures. These differences bring challenges and opportunities, and they will ultimately enhance the delivery of our complex technical work. Our people have the experience and skills to put ARWA at the forefront of the global nuclear waste management field as we deliver world class facilities for Australia.

**Nuclear Literacy**

Radioactive waste exists in many locations around the country, including hospitals, research facilities and universities. While these locations maintain safety measures, they were not specifically designed for long-term waste management, making their continued use unsustainable. The construction and operation of dedicated waste disposal facilities is needed to safeguard the future of Australia's nuclear medicine industry and nuclear research capabilities. ARWA’s culture of safety and security is international best practice and is complemented by our work to increase nuclear literacy in Australia through education and awareness.

**The opportunity**:
The Assistant Manager Communications and Engagement is an influential communicator who tailors advice to diverse audiences whilst supporting a strong collaborative culture to develop, manage and implement policies and initiatives to ensure joined up communications and engagement across the agency and externally. As the Assistant Manager Communications and Engagement, you will have excellent writing skills in order to produce the delivery of effective content and you will bring a collaborative, can-do approach when engaging with stakeholders on behalf of the Agency. The role is responsible for planning and implementing short-term and long-term communication and stakeholder engagement plans and initiatives that support ARWA’s objectives.

The incumbent will work within the Communications and Engagement Team which leads the internal and external communications of the agency and works across the organisation to ensure stakeholder engagement is thorough and co-ordinated. The team is responsible for all communication assets of the agency, working collaboratively with the broader Department of Industry, Science and Resources.

- Demonstrated experience in developing and implementing communications programs and strategies end to end.
