Governance Officer

Are you a governance guru with a passion for structure, compliance, and driving meaningful change? Do you love balancing detail with big-picture thinking and want to work in a role that directly supports environmental and community outcomes? This could be the role for you.

We're on the lookout for a proactive and detail-oriented Governance Officer to join our Corporate Services team. In this pivotal role, you'll help shape the future of NAWMA's governance, risk and policy functions — playing a key role in our mission to create a more sustainable South Australia. While full-time work is preferred, part-time arrangements will be considered for the right candidate.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Supporting governance processes, risk frameworks and compliance reporting.

  • Leading the discovery, implementation and ongoing management of a fit-for-purpose Records Management System.

  • Developing and reviewing policies, procedures and frameworks that keep NAWMA running smoothly.

  • Coordinating Board and Audit Committee agendas and minutes.

  • Supporting strategic risk and contract registers, our Annual Report, and Business Continuity Plan.

  • Collaborating with stakeholders to deliver best-practice governance initiatives.

About You:

You're an experienced professional with a passion for systems, structure, and service excellence. You will bring:

  • Tertiary qualifications and/or 3+ years' experience in a similar role.

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills.

  • Proven experience developing and applying policies and procedures.

  • Strong understanding of governance, risk, and compliance requirements.

  • The ability to manage competing deadlines and maintain confidentiality.

Bonus points if you have knowledge of local government or waste/environmental services — but if you're ready to learn, we're ready to support you.

Why NAWMA?

NAWMA (Northern Adelaide Waste Management Authority) is not just about trucks and bins — we're a forward-thinking, innovative organisation leading environmental change across SA.

We manage waste and recycling services for over 120,000 homes, run award-winning facilities, and work closely with our community and stakeholders to build a cleaner future.

You'll work from our contemporary Edinburgh North office and join a supportive team passionate about what they do. We offer flexibility, including the opportunity to work from home on occasion. Some out-of-hours work may be required to support Board meetings.
