We offer a values-based culture in which we pride ourselves on inclusion, respect, and integrity. We provide interesting, diverse work in a unique government environment where you can see the impact you have on the Canberra community.

Policy, Partnerships and Programs Division (PPP) provides strategic leadership, direction and action that improves the health of our community and ensures our public health system meets our community’s needs, now and into the future. PPP delivers strategic health policy advice on issues including primary care, workforce, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health, women, aged care, LGBTIQ+, inter-governmental negotiations and legal matters.
