The Office of Water Compliance supports the Inspector-General of Water Compliance, which is an independent statutory role.

**The Job**
The Assistant Director, Compliance Monitoring supports and assists the Director, Compliance Monitoring. As an Assistant Director you will be required to undertake complex and sensitive work under limited direction. You will be expected to exercise a considerable degree of independence and accountability and perform a leadership role within the team and within the broader Office of the Inspector-General. An EL 1 employee engages in complex problem solving and issues management and may undertake detailed or sensitive projects and inquiries that impact on strategic, political, or operational outcomes for the agency.

This is a unique opportunity to work in a new independent organisations’ culture, systems and performance to build a new institution based on integrity, transparency and trust. All employees of the Office of the Inspector-General of Water Compliance are expected to approach matters with impartiality and an intention to find the truth and have the highest levels of integrity in relation to exemplary decision making and behaviour.
