Successful applicants will be passionate about improving services, experiences and outcomes for veterans, will bring strong oral and written communication skills, be curious and operate with agility and creativity, and be a team player with the ability to support productive working relationships to deliver mutually beneficial outcomes with both internal and external stakeholders.
To succeed in this role, you will draw on a sound understanding of policy development and implementation and how it applies to veteran issues or be able to quickly acquire this understanding.

- Provide high quality written and verbal policy advice on relevant issues.
- Interpret and draft policy and develop new policy proposals.
- Prepare papers for relevant committees, including external stakeholder working groups.
- Draft ministerial and senior executive briefings, reports, and Ministerial correspondence.
- Gather and analyse data and research to formulate and review technical advice in relevant areas of policy.
- Build collaborative relationships with internal and external stakeholders to seek feedback on, or contributions to, policy development projects.
**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.
**Notes**
Where a non-ongoing position is offered, the role will be filled for an initial specified term of up to 23 months.
A merit pool of suitable applicants may be created which may be used to fill future ongoing and non-ongoing vacancies should they become available over the next 18 months.
