- Support the broader team in delivery of section and branch priorities.
- Ability to deliver against program objectives, through effective team and program management, a focus on operational governance, continuous improvement and evaluation and assurance
- Work collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders
- Strong organisational skills including the ability to effectively prioritise to meet deadlines, manage competing tasks and demonstrated initiative and problem solving skills.
**Eligibility**
- Under section 22(8) of the Public Service Act 1999, employees must be Australian citizens to be employed in the Australian Public Service (APS).
- All applicants external to DVA offered employment will be required to successfully undergo a pre-engagement screening check, even if they have a security clearance. The screening check is conducted in accordance with the Australian Government Protective Security Policy Framework requirements.
**Mandatory Requirements**
