- Canberra - ACT
**The Role**
Strategy, Policy, and Industry Group is seeking a number of Administrative Managers who want to use their leadership, administrative, and governance skills to contribute to key policy and national security functions to protect and further Australia’s national interests. The Administration Manager roles are spread across Strategy, Policy, and Industry Group. While these roles are highly varied, they all involve leading small teams and employing well-developed administration and governance skills to enable the Group to deliver national security objectives.
Your work could range from leading one of the five critical Divisional business teams supporting Division Heads by ensuring work flows smoothly across the Division. Or it might be part of the Group’s central coordination area that integrates governance, administrative processes and business support across the five Divisions. You could be embedded in one of the Group's many program delivery areas to provide administrative support to implement key policies; including, increasing defence industry exports, delivering infrastructure projects across the Pacific, or supporting our work with international military partners.
No two days would be the same - you might help conduct meetings to support and influence stakeholders, use your administrative and strategic nous to find better process solutions, help to prepare your Division Head for representation at Senate Estimates hearings, work closely with other parts of Defence to communicate corporate priorities to staff members, or contribute to corporate transformational change
**About our Team**
Strategy, Policy, and Industry Group is a fully-integrated, civilian-military workforce and draws on high-quality and motivated people from diverse backgrounds and academic disciplines who embody Defence and Australian Public Service values. We offer flexible working arrangements and a range of formal and informal professional development opportunities. While we offer a high degree of flexibility in the way we work, these positions are located in Canberra and as such, applicants from outside Canberra, would be required to move to Canberra if successful.
Working within Strategy, Policy, and Industry Group is more than just a job; it offers opportunities for administration officers over the course of their career to work across diverse national security and policy matters of national significance. We actively support mobility within the Group when the time is right but we also value our people developing their expertise in specific areas.
We are looking for people who enjoy leading small teams to undertake a diverse range of tasks, can handle conflicting priorities, and are genuinely willing to assist others. You need to be passionate about leadership, business management, governance, strengthening accountability and transparency, and streamlining administrative processes. You are someone who provides evidence-based advice and recommendations.
- Thoughtful team leadership.
- Developed interpersonal skills to liaise, collaborate, and build productive stakeholder relationships across reporting lines, including engaging senior executive.
- Exemplary levels of personal integrity, sensitivity, confidentiality and discretion with credibility.
- Strong initiative and sound judgement.
- An ability to produce quality work within short timeframes and with competing priorities.
- Versatility and agility to work across a range of topics.
