An exciting opportunity currently exists for a dynamic and highly experienced **Engagement and Capacity Development Lead** to join the North Eastern Public Health Unit**.**
The North Eastern Public Health Unit (NEPHU) is one of nine public health units in Victoria; three in metropolitan Melbourne and six covering regional Victoria. Together these units form a coordinated network, working in partnership with the Department of Health to deliver a comprehensive public health program for Victoria. The NEPHU is led and coordinated by Austin Health and works in partnership with Northern Health and Eastern Health in a networked operational structure with responsibility spanning approximately 1.85m people living in the northeast of metropolitan Melbourne.

The incumbent will lead the development, implementation and evaluation of innovative, purposeful and strategic activities to support NEPHU objectives, grow community capacity and build meaningful, coordinated relationships with our stakeholders. Through this activity, you will develop deep stakeholder and community insights that will underpin shared understanding of needs, priorities and gaps. In turn, this will support collaborative development of creative solutions and approaches that empower and enable stakeholders, support effective public health interventions and outcomes, and build and maintain awareness, confidence and trust in NEPHU.
**To be successful in this role you will have**:
- A tertiary qualification in engagement, capacity development, communications or other related fields, or equivalent relevant experience.

- Experience in strengthening community, stakeholder, entity and system capacity by fostering and delivering opportunities for participation, networking, sharing, learning and skill and resource development.
- Experience in developing, managing and motivating a high performing team and translating strategic direction into workplans and day-to-day activities.
- Strong organisational skills, attention to detail and proven ability and strong track record in efficiently managing tight deadlines and competing priorities.
- A flexible and agile ‘can-do’ attitude.
- Advanced analytical, project management and report writing skills.
