- Work collaboratively across teams to share expertise and contribute to delivery of business outcomes.
- Build and sustain relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
- Provide verbal and written advice and recommendations to support decision-making.
- Lead and contribute to forward work plans, development of committee and parliamentary briefs as required.

This position has people management responsibility and as such you will be required to exercise your people management skills and knowledge to lead a high performing and cohesive team.

**About our Team**
Join our newly established APS Capability Branch, where every day presents an opportunity to make a difference. Our branch has a pivotal focus on strengthening APS workforce capability while contributing to APS Reform across government. Each of our Directorates plays a critical role in shaping our APS workforce:

- Our Graduate and Entry Level Programs are at the heart of our talent ecosystem, nurturing participants through opportunities for growth and development, paving the way for successful and fulfilling careers.
- Talent Management is dedicated to investment in our people, unlocking the potential of our APS workforce and enabling every individual to thrive.
- Our APS Professionalisation team works across the enterprise to uplift capability, embed professions and pathways to build inspiring and rewarding careers in Defence.

Your curiosity, initiative and enthusiasm for enabling others to achieve great things will assist you to drive professionalisation in the Defence APS context. You will use your communication skills to build professional relationships. You will work collaboratively with others and use your research and analytical skills to understand organisational and individual capability requirements.

You will work both autonomously and within and across teams to share your expertise and learn from others. Your problem solving, innovative thinking and passion for participatory design will be a driving force as we work together to shape career pathways and uplift capability across the APS.
