- think critically: assess the implications of economic and policy developments and develop cogent insights as a basis for policy advice.
- engage effectively: build and maintain relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including regulators, advocacy groups and corporations.
- navigate strategic context: understand the policy landscape, identify opportunities and show good judgement.
- deliver results: deliver timely and high-quality outcomes that influence policy makers and effectively implement the Government’s decisions and
- show leadership: be proactive, innovative and inclusive.

Leadership capabilities required:

- lead a team of people to identify opportunities for improving policy settings and navigate policy issues as they emerge.
- develop and implement strategic directions for the unit and manage competing priorities effectively.
- build team capability through coaching, providing performance feedback and encouraging career development.
- develop and maintain productive relationships with other government agencies and with stakeholders in the private sector and in academia.
- have accountability for briefings to ministers and senior officials, inputs to speeches, replies to parliamentary questions and other correspondence.
- represent Treasury at whole of government and/or industry meetings.

There are five positions available at the EL2 Director level:
These positions are in the Market Conduct and Digital Division and Financial System Division. For these roles, Treasury is looking for team-oriented leaders with an interest in financial sector, consumer and/or digital policy issues and have relevant related expertise.

**Scams Task Force**

As Director of this Taskforce, you will lead a team providing strategic policy advice to the Assistant Treasurer on the Government’s anti-scam agenda. Key priorities include high-level engagement with industry and stakeholders on a possible anti-scams industry code, working with the ACCC, including the National Anti-Scam Centre, and coordinating anti-scam policy across Government. Anti-scam policy touches on a range of areas, including digital platform regulation, conduct in our financial and telecommunication systems and cyber security. As team leader, you will work closely with our Competition Policy and Digital Competition teams and be part of the Branch and Division’s EL2 leadership Groups.

**Consumer Policy Unit**

As Director of this unit, you will lead a team responsible for consumer policy development in the Department. Current projects include the development of a possible Unfair Trading Practices prohibition to respond to manipulative business models and marketing techniques used by digital and non-digital businesses and implementation of the Government’s commitment to introduce a Designated Complaints scheme, which would allow nominated consumer and small business groups to register high profile complaints with the ACCC. The unit collaborates closely with the states and territories, which have joint responsibility for consumer policy in Australia, on a forward agenda agreed each year by ministers. With consumer policy thinking changing rapidly in response to technological, sustainability and wider community developments, creative, inter-disciplinary policy analysis in this area is more important than ever.

**Digital Coordination Unit**
As Director of this unit, you will lead a team responsible for providing strategic policy advice to the Treasurer and Assistant Treasurer on the Government’s digital agenda. The Digital Coordination Unit: coordinates Treasury’s position on digitally enabled Budget proposals across all portfolios, including a formal role shadowing the Digital Transformation Agency; coordinates Treasury position on the regulatory reform agenda for the Digital Identity program; works with the Australian Taxation Office in the delivery of eInvoicing across the Commonwealth, State and Territory Governments and the Private sector; provides briefing and advice to Treasury Senior Executives for several digital themed cross-government committees; and provides advice on Australia’s digital policy agenda to international fora including IPEF, APEC, and G20 to promote productivity, digital trade and international interoperability. The unit collaborates extensively across Government and the Treasury to draw together advice on the everchanging digital landscape, to ensure Treasury is promoting a safe, inclusive, and innovative digital economy.

**SME Finance Unit**
As Director of this unit, you will be responsible for the governance and administration of the small and medium enterprises (SME) loan guarantee schemes established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This role involves program risk management of the SME schemes that will include: leading a small team; managing claims processes; oversight of assurance and compliance p
