**The Role**
Within the Defence Speechwriting section, speechwriters develop speeches and other leadership communication products for Defence’s portfolio Ministers and senior Defence leaders. Speechwriting involves preparing outlines, coordinating requests for content, primary and secondary source research, drafting, editing, fact checking and clearing. As part of the Defence Speechwriting team, speechwriters write on a variety of portfolio, corporate and public interest issues and are responsible for developing informed, intelligible, persuasive and engaging narratives which consider and draw together the policy, strategic, international, media, public and historical contexts. Speechwriters work closely with Ministerial offices, the Offices of the Secretary and Chief of the Defence Force, and Senior Executive and Star Rank Officers across the Defence organisation on speech objectives, content and message development.
**About our Team**
The Media and Information Disclosure Branch is responsible for day-to-day media operations across Defence. The branch brings together media, news, Freedom of Information and speechwriting functions to ensure the department’s messaging is clear, consistent and up to the expected standards. The Branch affords employees opportunities to gain a wide-ranging understanding of the Department and ADF’s work, to build networks across the Defence enterprise, to develop an awareness of ministerial and executive priorities, and to increase knowledge of defence issues, which affect the Australian public and are reported on by the media.
Defence Speechwriting is a small and busy team with responsibility for researching and drafting short and long form speeches and other leadership communication products. The team contributes to shaping messages and developing Defence’s public narrative in accordance with ministerial and executive communication priorities and objectives.
