Shape the Future of Australia's Natural Assets

We are seeking a Senior Policy Officer to contribute to a significant water reform program that aims to respond to the impacts of climate change, support community and industry needs, and improve access to water for First Nations people.

The Murray-Darling Basin Authority (MDBA) is an independent government agency that manages the Murray-Darling Basin's water resources in the national interest. With the enactment of the Water Act 2007, the MDBA was established as an independent expertise-based statutory agency.

The MDBA aims to achieve a healthy working Basin for the benefit of all Australians. The Murray-Darling Basin contains a rich diversity of natural environments that are unique in Australia and the world. The Basin is also crucial to Australia's economy and home to 2.3 million Australians, including people from over 50 First Nations.

As a Senior Policy Officer, you will be responsible for providing and implementing high-level policy research and advice on existing or developing opportunities and/or challenges that intersect with the implementation of the Basin Plan Review. These roles work closely with other parts of the Basin Plan Review Division and the Murray-Darling Basin Authority, other agencies of the Australian Government, the Basin States, and wider stakeholders.

Your Key Responsibilities:

  • Undertake research and policy analysis on a range of water management issues, and provide recommendations on pathways to solve complex problems.
  • Understand, support, and communicate the reasons for decisions and recommendations, identifying the relationship between organisational goals and operational tasks.
  • Coordinate and deliver against team goals, strategies, and work plans, and consider the longer-term impact of own work and work area on broader outcomes.
  • Assist with the preparation of briefing material, correspondence, submissions, contracts, and other policy or operational documents.

What We Offer You

  • You will have the opportunity to work on projects where you contribute to shaping the future of one of Australia's greatest natural assets and protect it for future generations.
