- $142,968 - $152,631 + 15.4% super
- Canberra

**Make your contribution to a national institution**

This is not your normal parliamentary role. We are one of the few government organisations that touches the lives of all Australians and all of Australia. We take our responsibility for reporting to the Parliament and responding to elected officials seriously. That means we are constantly engaging at all levels of government, from a local Mayor to the Prime Minister.

You will lead a small team to support the Bureau to take a strategic approach to engage with elected officials across the country, ensuring they have the information they need to support their communities. You will help the Bureau to position itself as the national authority on weather, water, climate, oceans and space weather knowledge through high-quality representation at parliamentary committees and inquiries. You will be the person in our organisation who has an in-depth understanding of political processes and players, providing advice to our executive group.

We are looking for someone with great interpersonal skills, a problem solver who is proactive and innovative in their approach and great attention to detail. If you want to make a contribution to the Australian public this is the role you have been looking for.
