  • Presenting at national forums, workshops, and committee meetings, and providing secretariat support where required.
  • Collaborating across internal teams to ensure alignment with broader safety and quality initiatives.

This role requires initiative, analytical depth, and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a dynamic, technically complex environment.

To be successful in this role, you'll bring:

  • Extensive experience in project management and policy development within healthcare or public health
  • Strong analytical and research skills, including interpreting complex clinical data and literature
  • High-level writing and communication skills, with the ability to tailor content for diverse audiences
  • Proven ability to consult and negotiate with senior stakeholders, including clinicians and government representatives
  • A deep understanding of AMR, communicable diseases, infection prevention, and the Australian healthcare system
  • Relevant tertiary qualifications in a health-related field

What you'll get in return

  • Competitive salary of $120,829 - $137,808 plus 15.4% superannuation
  • A meaningful opportunity to contribute to national health outcomes
