**Position Description**:
The National Agreement set out that data projects will be established in up to six locations across Australia. The Community Data Projects will enable Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations and communities to access and use locally relevant disaggregated data and information to set and monitor the implementation of efforts to Close the Gap and monitor progress towards their priorities.
The Commonwealth, through the National Indigenous Australians Agency, is playing a key coordinating role for the projects through the provision of secretariat functions. As part of its commitment to the Community Data Projects, the Commonwealth has funded the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare to develop the infrastructure to support the secure portals and to assist with the development of secure data sharing protocols.
The Department of Social Services is committed to supporting this work. In this role you will be required to undertake or facilitate a broad range of tasks. This may include, but is not limited to, assessing what data the department holds that can support community priorities, working with analysts to source/extract data, ensuring that the relevant agreements are established to share data.
The role involves working with a range of internal and external stakeholders also supporting the Community Data Projects. An additional feature of this role is the support you will provide to make a strategic contribution to the Department’s work supporting Priority Reform 4. This role requires you to operate under broad direction and exercise a considerable degree of independence.
**Eligibility / Additional Requirements**:
To be eligible for employment with Department of Social Services (the department), you must be an Australian citizen. An applicant's suitability for employment with the Department will be assessed through a pre-employment screening process. This will include an identity and criminal history background check.
**Eligibility to obtain an Australian Government Security Clearance**:
The suitable applicant must also obtain and maintain a security clearance conducted by the Australian Government Security Vetting Agency (AGSVA).
Applicants also must be able to establish their background as checkable to be considered eligible for a security clearance. Any gaps or periods of time spent overseas for 12 or more months (cumulative) that cannot be verified by an Australian referee is deemed uncheckable, rendering the applicant ineligible for a security clearance. Background history must cover 5 / 10 years (Baseline / Negative Vet 1 or Negative Vet 2) of employment, education, residential, criminal history and anything else specified by the AGSVA. The suitable applicant must be willing to disclose all relevant and required information to fulfil this process.
