**About the NSW Ombudsman**

Government agencies touch and impact the lives of the people of NSW every day, and we are there to make sure those interactions are fair. Government is complex and people need to have confidence that someone is holding government agencies to account if their actions are unreasonable, wrong or unlawful.

We are that someone. We are the organisation that shines a light on serious wrong conduct in the delivery of government services. Our ultimate goal is that everyone receives the right services and fair treatment from the agencies we oversight.

Our scope is broad. We cover services for vulnerable families, including the delivery of community services funded by government; local councils; correctional and youth justice centres; education; environment protection and public transport - to name a few

We work to help resolve problems at an individual level, as well as looking at the bigger picture to promote system improvements in public administration and in the delivery of community services. We are confident in the knowledge that our work will give voice to the individual and bring fairness and balance to how the government delivers to the public it serves.

We are committed to providing a range of career development opportunities. We aim to guide and help our people with the skills they need to lead our organisation and give the most impact to what they do.

**The Role**

The Conciliator and Early Resolution Officer is responsible for resolving complaints primarily using conciliation but also a suite of other early intervention tools. The occupant contributes to the informal resolution of complaints arising from either _Ombudsman Act 1979_, _Community Services (Complaints, Reviews and Monitoring) Act 1993_ and/or _Public Interest Disclosure Act 2022_, in a manner that is consistent with dispute resolution best practice and is reflective of the role and function of the office.**

**About you**

We are looking for an experienced dispute resolution specialist with a strong understanding of the principles of conciliation and a commitment to helping parties to resolve complaints in an accessible, informal, trauma-informed and culturally safe manner. Conciliation or mediation experience in a statutory environment is desirable.

**What can we offer?**
- Competitive salary and future growth opportunities within NSW Ombudsman
- Flexibility and the capacity to work in a hybrid way
- Work life balance with a 35-hour work week
- Close to public transport - office is adjacent to Town Hall Train Station
- Great team environment and culture
- Fitness Passport
- CV outlining your skills, knowledge, and experience as relevant to this role.
- The assessment process will be conducted by a standard panel assessment process.
- A talent pool may be created through this recruitment process. A recruitment pool is a pool of applicants who have been assessed and identified as suitable for this role or similar roles, and who may be considered for a range of similar roles, including temporary, term or ongoing roles over the next 18 months.
- All temporary roles may have the opportunity for ongoing employment.
