**Job no**: 512337

**Employment type**: Non-Ongoing - Specified Term, Ongoing

**Location**: Canberra

**Categories**: Programme Management, APS Level 6, Project Management

**About the department**:
The department plays a key role in the Australian Government’s agenda to create jobs and build a stronger, more resilient and competitive economy. Our work builds on Australia’s existing strengths, supports businesses to grow, and drives new opportunities for long-term productivity growth and prosperity. The success of the department helps Australia recover from the economic consequences of COVID‑19 and adapt to its ongoing effects. Through our work, we support the government’s economic recovery plan and help to deliver a better future for all Australians.

**About Questacon**:
Questacon - The National Science and Technology Centre is a division of the Australian Government Department of Industry Science and Resources. Our Vision is “a better future for all Australians through engagement with science, technology and innovation.” We deliver on that vision through our Mission “to excite and motivate people through inspirational learning experiences”. Science communication is at the heart of what we do. We work with partners and supporters to deliver inspirational learning experiences for young Australians, their teachers, families and communities.

Questacon’s Science and Learning branch is responsible for the quality and creative direction, national strategic engagement and impact of Questacon’s Science and Learning activities. The branch delivers a wide range of Questacon’s successful exhibitions and programs and connects communities across Australia with science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) opportunities through place-based sustainable collaboration, building networks of locally led STEM learning ecosystems into the future so all Australians can access Questacon - wherever they are.

**About the team**:
The National Touring Programs team delivers a range of hands-on & interactive STEM activities to increase student and community engagement with science, technology, engineering and maths. Activities include student workshops, science shows, pop-up science centres and professional learning, and are delivered in-person or via video conference to audiences in Canberra and throughout metropolitan, regional and remote parts of Australia.

Activities include:

- Questacon Science Circus primary-school science shows - captivating performances for students showcasing some of the wondrous science in the world around them.
- Innovation workshops for high-school students - STEM challenges designed to develop student inquiry and problem solving skills, communication and confidence.
- Pop-up science centres - supporting regional communities to have a taste of Questacon, with hands-on exhibits and spectacular science shows to engage the whole family.
- Skill development workshops for educators - in-person and video conference workshops supporting the development of inquiry based learning techniques.
- Strong leadership skills, emotional intelligence and the ability to motivate and support a large and diverse team to achieve results through good direction, mentoring and coaching.
- Experience managing the coordination and planning of complex projects, demonstrating excellent organisational and time management skills and the ability to support several project teams concurrently.
- Demonstrated ability to take responsibility for decisions, using initiative and working independently under mínimal supervision, including under time pressure and during periods of travel.
- Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively and build relationships with internal and external stakeholders, and contribute to positive team culture.

Experience coordinating, leading, and/or delivering STEM engagement activities is not essential, however, would be advantageous.

**What you will do**:
Working consistently within the expectations for an APS Level 6 in the APS Work Level Standards, Team Leaders will:

- Take responsibility for the successful planning and delivery of logistics and the operations of complex national touring programs and activities, working closely with the rest of the coordination team.
- Develop project plans and delivery timelines, assess risks, define goals, and identify measures of success for the project and team.
- Provide clear work tasks and meaningful direction to the program delivery team, and identify development and training requirements to ensure a high level of team capability.
- Guide, motivate and support the development and wellbeing of project coordinators and peers across a large team working on multiple concurrent projects.
- Effectively allocate and monitor resources, including staff, equipment and budget.
- Proactively identify problems, risks, and improvements, with a solutions-focused approach to unexpected change, to ensure the best outcomes for the program and our
