- Provide high-quality strategic advice on issues of policy, legislation, budget, and cross-agency and interjurisdictional engagement relating to talent acquisition processes to ensure attraction strategies, assessment, interview and selection techniques are implemented and maintained.
- Build and sustain partnerships and networks with key internal and external stakeholders, including industrial bodies to undertake high-level negotiations, provide advice and resolve complex risks and issues to achieve positive outcomes for the organisation and its workforce.
- Undertake high-level research, analysis and evaluation of current and emerging recruitment issues and trends, identifying potential risks likely to impact the department and provide solutions or recommendation for continuous improvement.
