As one of the few organisations that touches the lives of all Australians and all of Australia, we take our responsibilities to report to the Parliament and respond to elected officials seriously.

We play a key role in many parliamentary inquiries and cross-government activities, providing our expertise in meteorology, climatology, and hydrology.

Within the Communications Program, the Government Relations Team leads the coordination of our contribution to all Parliamentary, Cabinet, Ministerial and intergovernmental activities, at a local, state and Commonwealth level.

Reporting to the Stakeholder Engagement Team Leader, this role will work across the team providing support on our highest priorities. You will support stakeholder engagement for high-profile, controversial or sensitive issues that impact the Australian community. You will help to coordinate our interactions with other government departments and engagement with the Cabinet process. You will undertake research into critical government programs and support the Bureau to have deep insights into our broader operating environment.
