The Department of Health plays a critical role in the Victorian health system and is responsible for shaping it to meet the health needs of all Victorians. We’re focused on supporting Victorians to be as healthy as they can; whether through alerting them to seasonal risks like thunderstorm asthma, notifying them of contact with communicable diseases, safeguarding their drinking water, developing the best health, wellbeing and care facilities in the world, being at the forefront of mental health and wellbeing treatment or accelerating medical research. It’s all part of the way we partner with the community to help every individual lead a healthy life.
**About the role**:
The Principal Advisers work together and across DH to support delivery of the suite of savings initiatives approved by Health Finance Board and Cabinet. Actual delivery of the initiatives remains the responsibility of specific DH Divisions, therefore these roles must operate in a highly collaborative and networked manner - influencing and overseeing the work of peers and stakeholders.
The role will be required to lead ongoing operation of the Health Finance Board, including the role of secretariat which will be a significant portion of this role. Oversee implementation and delivery of savings initiatives, track and report on activity and communicate and engage with departmental, government and health system stakeholders.
The role is a great opportunity to demonstrate and build on the full set of public sector leadership skills, including collaborating and influencing across agencies, driving and reporting on performance and managing financial and reputation risk. The role will grant exposure to senior stakeholders and decision-makers, and provide a good view of health system priorities and issues.

- A structured, analytical and strategic thinker who has experience tackling complex problems?
- Experienced at leading teams to deliver multiple simultaneous streams of priority work?
- Experienced at working with diverse and senior internal and external stakeholders to influence and negotiate outcomes?
- Able to navigate ambiguous, fast-changing and demanding conditions to achieve good results for stakeholders?
**About us**:
At the Victorian Department of Health we want a future where Victorians are the healthiest people in the world. A Victoria where our children and people thrive, our workplaces are productive and safe, and our communities are more connected.
We see it as our job to support Victorians to stay healthy and safe. And to deliver a world-class healthcare system that ensures every single Victorian can access safe, quality care that leads to better health outcomes for all.
