**The Role**
International Engagement is an integrated core function and key tool for the Australian Government to achieve its overall strategic objectives. CASG has a critical and far reaching role in engaging other countries through a range of capability cooperation agreements and DEPSEC CASG's position as the National Armaments Director.

The role provides support to Ministers, DEPSEC CASG, NSSG, GWEO and Division Heads on engagement and international policy matters as they relate to acquisition and sustainment. The importance of international collaborations (including as a key contribution to capability), of delivering key policy input and the conduct of CASG partner engagement is growing.

This is an exciting, fast paced position that requires the successful applicant to support the coordination of key international dialogues for Defence. Regular engagement with senior managers and foreign Government officials will be undertaken, and the applicant will need to be comfortable and resourceful in this environment.

**About our Team**
The International Engagement and Foreign Military Sales Branch supports effective and efficient capability delivery in collaboration with Australia’s International acquisition and sustainment partners. The team consists of three Directorates - International Engagement, Foreign Sourcing and Alliance Sustainment Support.

Our main responsibilities broadly include:

- Building Australia's cooperation with international acquisition and sustainment partners.
- Optimising the FMS process flow across the capability lifecycle.
- Professionalising the foreign sourcing capability across all delivery groups and introducing mechanisms for process continuous improvement.
- Establishing mechanisms for delivery of AUKUS Pillar 2 initiatives, and supporting the implementation of export-licence-free arrangements.
- Supporting Alliance Sustainment mechanisms, including by developing solutions for maintenance, repair, overhaul and upgrade of allied assets in Australia.

We are a diverse and high-achieving team that works across a varied and interesting range of tasks. We support the provision of advice to government, senior officers across delivery groups, and provide valued contributions for their decision making and engagement with our close allies and partners.

You will have the ability to contribute to briefs such as Ministerial submissions, senior officer decision briefs and talking points on capability and policy matters. You will be able to understand, condense and align disparate briefing material into clear and concise briefing products for senior officers.

You will be able to organise and provide logístical and coordination support for high-level visits and meetings.
- An ability to respond appropriately to dynamic and evolving tasking requirements;
- Build and sustain effective relationships with a variety of stakeholders to manage workloads, timeframes, expectations and escalated enquiries;
- Strong administration and time management skills, with an ability to manage competing priorities and with the ability to work under pressure and within tight deadlines;
- Sound stakeholder engagement and relationship management; and
- Strong oral communication skills, attention to detail and a can do attitude.
- Assist to manage administrative arrangements of divisional representation at senior departmental or interdepartmental committees and international meetings.
- Proactively progress tasks relating to the delivery of programs, projects and activities relevant to policy priorities, and/or international engagement (e.g. financial management and administration) activities.
