Barton, Australia Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet Full time

Location: Barton, ACT

Application Closing Date: 26-Jul-2023

**Classification**

Executive Level 2 ($132,252 - $157,402)

**Employment Type**

Ongoing

**Flexible Work**

Full-time (Flexible working arrangements will be considered)

**The Opportunity**

We’re seeking strong leaders to be part of the Government’s new in-house consulting function, known as Australian Government Consulting (AGC). The new function will bring more strategic thinking back into government, strengthening APS capability and reducing reliance on external consultants for services that can be provided in-house. It’s a unique and exciting opportunity at the forefront of the Government’s APS Reform agenda.

You’ll be part of the team that provides a high-quality alternative service to external consultants, supporting APS clients across all agencies. It will involve pioneering and designing a different way of working - a unique APS style of strategic management consulting to deliver impact for the Australian public.

AGC will have three related functions:

- Delivering core strategic consulting projects to support clients in developing strategic advice for Government and in building high-performing organisations, using a robust consulting methodology that combines the best of private sector approaches and public sector insights.
- Strengthening APS capability, including by transferring consulting practitioner skillsets to client teams.
- Supporting agencies to achieve better value when engaging external consultants.

There is scope to develop more service offers and reach more clients over time.

AGC seeks to be a model employer. It will actively invest in the development of its people, including providing training and mentoring to help you build a specialisation in consulting for government.

You’ll work with, and learn from, a diverse pool of partners, including former senior APS leaders and ex-consultants with specialist expertise. It will also offer diverse, interesting and challenging work.

You’ll work closely with the leadership of AGC to drive the things that make it unique - its team of people and the way it works.

You’ll lead a team to:

- Ensure AGC is an employer of choice and creates the best culture for its people
- Create the tools, methodology and assurance processes that underpin AGC’s service offers, with a focus on continuous improvement
- Build high-performing AGC teams, with the right skillsets and capabilities they need to successfully deliver services, and access additional specialist capabilities as needed
- Develop and deliver capability uplift activities to embed AGC consulting methodologies in the way AGC teams work, transfer this knowledge to client teams, and identify ways to share this capability uplift with the Australian Public Service more broadly
- Create and coordinate AGC’s workshop facilitation capability.

A merit pool may be established and used to fill the same or similar vacancies for 18 months from the date of advertising.

You'll:

- Have a passion for making a difference and challenging the status-quo
- Have a demonstrated ability to lead and coach a high-performing team and build an inclusive, supportive culture
- Distil your experience in creating strategic policy and/or transforming organisations into a consulting methodology for AGC, underpinning its reputation for quality
- Model high levels of integrity and the APS Values and Code of Conduct.
