Canberra, ACT, Australia Australian Government Department of Defence Full time

The Role
This role provides an opportunity to apply analytical thinking and methods to interpret data, identify key performance indicators (KPIs), and develop models to analyse and forecast workforce demand and market usage, attrition rates, and skill requirements. The role will require extensive knowledge to collect, cleanse and interpret external workforce data from various sources and Defence systems.

The role is part of the Defence Contractor Task Force. Defence has committed to reducing its reliance on external contractors and increasing its APS workforce, consistent with the Federal Government commitment. Your work will support Defence to reduce reliance on external labour by 2,000 by the end of 2024 and further initiatives that support improvements to controls and governance to manage above the line contractors and ensure Defence has the appropriate workforce mix to deliver on Government priorities.

About our Team
With a growing team of over 600 people spread across Australia, with significant offices in Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney, Defence Financial Group (DFG) is the largest finance function in the Commonwealth. DFG manages over $45 Billion in funding, which equates to a budget of over $100 million per day, with a huge variety of large complex projects running in parallel.

The breadth of technical challenges and opportunities to develop and grow your experience and leadership capabilities are second to none. Career development and movement is actively encouraged with a huge variety of subject matter areas to choose from.

DFG have been undertaking an expansive reform journey to ensure we are a trusted and professional business partner, delivering financial insight to inform decision-making across Defence. DFG works as one cohesive unit with a structure now harmonised with most other Commonwealth agencies. We are a large team that is actively sharing ideas and collaborating across an enormously diverse business.

Our team culture strongly contributes to our experience at work. Reflected through the Defence Values and Behaviours, culture is central to everything we do in Defence. We have a shared responsibility to strengthen, foster and grow a positive and inclusive culture within DFG. Culture relies on leadership at all levels and a commitment from all of us to actively model the Defence Values and Behaviours.

As we enter the next exciting phase of our reform including major investment in systems and automation, as well as process and policy reform, we are looking for new talent from the private and public sector with fresh ways of thinking to join our rejuvenated culture.

Our Ideal Candidate
