- Effectively liaise with officers of key delivery partners and broader stakeholders to ensure coordinated and effective delivery of environmental water.
- Participate in community consultation processes, including attendance at environmental water advisory group meetings.
- Support the ongoing development of the environmental water program by contributing to strategic projects that are led by the Victorian Environmental Water Holder or policy reform projects that are led by the Department of Energy, Environment, and Climate Action (DEECA) or other program partners.
