**About CCIWA**
CCIWA is an independent, not-for-profit, Member-based organisation that has been committed to advancing trade and commerce in WA for more than 130 years. Our vision is for WA to be the best place to live and do business. To achieve this, we listen to the needs of all our stakeholders — businesses, families, consumers and the WA workforce - and respond with agenda-setting policy and advocacy work.

At CCIWA we choose to be the most contemporary reflection of the community we represent. We choose ideas. We choose action. And we choose great people who want purpose in their lives.

**About the Opportunity**
The Policy, Economics and Influence team has a track record of championing policy reform, working closely with State and Federal Governments and other Industry bodies, to ensure our Members’ interests are heard and top of mind.

Success in this role reflects the ability to come together with other people to solve problems, critically identify current and future economic trends and assist in shaping and influencing policy aimed at fostering economic growth and development in WA.

You will work alongside highly experienced professionals from diverse backgrounds — including media, marketing, economics and policy professionals — who share a collective passion for driving positive change in our community.

The core function of this role is to interpret and analyse a wide range of economic indicators to help formulate the WA business community’s view on the state of the economy.

Tasks include, but are not limited to:

- Lead the delivery of CCIWA’s Consumer Confidence and Business Confidence Surveys;

- Keep abreast of issues relevant to the WA and Australian business communities;
- Work as part of a team to research, develop and advocate sound and sensible policy on behalf of business;
- Assist in the maintenance of relationships with key local and national stakeholders, including government and business;
- Prepare presentations, briefing documents and speeches for the Chief Economist and CEO;
- Collect, interpret and communicate large volumes of data in a simplified, visually engaging format; and
- Provide accurate and timely advice to media inquiries and statements.

This is an exciting opportunity to develop your technical and research capabilities in an autonomous but supportive environment. You will have fantastic exposure to contemporary economic and policy issues, as well as working with media and marketing professionals, and contribute to projects that seek to strengthen Western Australia’s economic future.

**About you**
You are an ambitious, intellectually curious change-maker who has a burning desire to make Western Australia the best place to live and do business. You have an aptitude for collaboration, teamwork and empathy, and an affinity for communicating complex ideas in simple and engaging formats.

To succeed in this role, you will be an individual who believes in and is committed to promoting business and the broader economy and is passionate about economic policy and development. You will have an agile mindset and the ability to work in high performing, contemporary and cross-functional teams.

You will have:

- A strong academic background, including a Bachelor/tertiary degree in relevant field, such as Economics, Finance, Public Policy or a related discipline.
- Strong attention to detail with the ability to produce high quality work that meets deadlines.
- Ability to critically analyse and interpret economic data and information.
