**About the NSW Ombudsman**
Government agencies touch and impact the lives of the people of NSW every day, and we are there to make sure those interactions are fair. Government is complex and people need to have confidence that someone is holding government agencies to account if their actions are unreasonable, wrong or unlawful.
We are that someone. We are the organisation that shines a light on serious wrong conduct in the delivery of government services. Our ultimate goal is that everyone receives the right services and fair treatment from the agencies we oversight.
Our scope is broad. We cover services for vulnerable families, including the delivery of community services funded by government; local councils; correctional and youth justice centres; education; environment protection and public transport - to name a few
We work to help resolve problems at an individual level, as well as looking at the bigger picture to promote system improvements in public administration and in the delivery of community services. We are confident in the knowledge that our work will give voice to the individual and bring fairness and balance to how the government delivers to the public it serves.
We are committed to providing a range of career development opportunities. We aim to guide and help our people with the skills they need to lead our organisation and give the most impact to what they do.
**The Role**
The Whistleblower Support Specialist provides information and support to people who have made, or are seeking to make, a public interest disclosure (PID) under the Public Interest Disclosures Act 2022 (the PID Act).
The purpose of this support is to help empower public officials to raise their concerns about serious wrongdoing, and to provide them with pathways once they have done so.
Given our important role as an independent oversight agency, this team does not provide advocacy services.

You have:
- strong communication skills, including the ability to communicate well with diverse stakeholders, and to prepare correspondence and reports
- experience analysing sensitive matters and providing appropriate advice
- the ability to work independently and as part of a team
- an understanding of the statutory functions and work of the NSW Ombudsman
- relevant tertiary qualifications (such as law and/or social work) OR equivalent working experience (such as in complaint management).
**What can we offer?**
- Competitive salary and future growth opportunities within NSW Ombudsman
- Flexibility and the capacity to work in a hybrid way
- Work life balance with a 35-hour work week
- Close to public transport - office is adjacent to Town Hall Train Station
- Great team environment and culture.
