THE ROLE

Working effectively and collaboratively with the team and system partners, the Project Officer manages projects relating to the design and implementation of innovative, integrated family services that keep children and families safe, well, connected and empowered. ​

  • create better experiences and outcomes for children and families
  • continually improve the way things work to meet community needs​
  • influence government policy and inform future investment. ​

A critical component of the work is to lead activities in the design phase of the service model cycle and to contribute to, or coordinate, project deliverables in the other phases of the cycle. ​

More broadly, the Project Officer contributes to the strategic direction and work priorities of unit, branch and division. ​

ACCOUNTABILITIES INCLUDE

  1. Build and maintain positive relationships with key stakeholders to deliver outcomes.
  2. Prepare collateral to communicate with and engage a range of audiences about family services reforms, to build understanding and to drive cultural and practice change.
