Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Australian Government Department of Defence Full time

The Role

The Australian Government Department of Defence is seeking highly skilled professionals to join the Infrastructure Division as Assistant Directors.

As a key member of the Security and Estate Group, you will play a critical role in supporting the implementation of the National Defence Strategy, which includes advancing Australia's acquisition of conventionally-armed nuclear-powered submarine capability, enhancing our long range strike and guided weapons and explosive ordnance enterprise, strengthening our northern bases, and improving the growth and retention of a highly skilled workforce.

Within the Infrastructure Division, you will be responsible for program and project management, strategic policy advice, and estate planning, including advice on legislative compliance and alignment with major Government policies and reforms such as the clean energy transition.

Additionally, you will contribute to contamination management and remediation, including the management of PFAS and other contaminants, and program delivery, including management of the National Unexploded Ordnance Program, the Noise and Flight Path Monitoring System, and the Australian Noise Exposure Forecast maps at relevant airfields and aircraft noise considerations.

As a member of the team, you will also engage with stakeholders and provide strategic communications, leveraging your expertise in multidisciplinary teams, time management, prioritisation, and interpersonal skills.

About Our Team

The Infrastructure Division manages the development, maintenance, and disposal of the Defence estate, one of the largest real estate portfolios in Australia. We provide facilities and infrastructure in support of the activities of over 90,000 Defence personnel across all states and territories in Australia.

Our team is responsible for reviewing, developing, and constructing facilities and sites, often planning out to thirty years in advance. We also create heritage and environment policy for all Defence properties across Australia. Property acquisitions, leasing, disposal, and management of estate-related native title, offshore mining, and petroleum exploration issues all fall within our portfolio of responsibilities.

Our Ideal Candidate

We are seeking highly skilled professionals with experience in managing multidisciplinary teams, excellent time management and prioritisation skills, well-developed interpersonal skills, and superior written and verbal communication skills.

Candidates will be able to demonstrate experience in a range of core public service skills, including leadership, people management, problem-solving, governance, and verbal and written communication. Formal qualifications and subject matter expertise, such as program and project management qualifications, explosive ordnance, engineering qualifications, and experience, data management and analytics qualifications, and environmental management experience, will be beneficial for some roles.

Please clearly indicate if there are specific role or function for which these skills will align.
