- Implement and support the review of the stakeholder engagement toolkit to ensure it is fit-for-purpose, consistently applied and used across the Property team.
- Support the delivery of initiatives to build stakeholder engagement capacity and skills within the Property team, including a stakeholder and government engagement workshops.
- Capture and report on high stakeholder risk projects via the Priority Projects radar.
- Manage industry group engagement and planning policy outcomes, including oversight, review and advice in the development of submissions to all levels of government in respect of planning policy.
- This role is expected to contribute strategically to WOW’s broader advocacy and stakeholder engagement agenda.

**About you**
