  • Oversee VET compliance and quality assurance processes, including adherence to ASQA and departmental standards, validation, and continuous improvement.
  • Support and develop staff capability through mentoring, professional learning, and the promotion of consistent, high-quality VET delivery and assessment practices.
  • Drive data-informed improvement across Alliance programs, monitoring student enrolments, completion rates, and post-school outcomes to inform decision-making and reporting.
  • Represent the Alliance in regional and departmental networks, industry forums, and local partnership initiatives to strengthen vocational pathways and community engagement.
  • Collaborate with senior leadership teams across member schools to align training programs with school strategic plans and Annual Implementation Plans (AIPs).
