About the Role

Tenure:
Senior Project Officer, L6 available for immediate filling.

Are you ready to be at the forefront of global opportunity and strategic innovation? The
Strategy and International Engagement
branch is calling on visionary thinkers, bold collaborators, and policy trailblazers to help drive Western Australia's future on the world stage.

We're the powerhouse behind WA's international presence — delivering strategic policy advice, managing high-impact projects, and cultivating global partnerships that fuel investment, trade, and development. From steering complex initiatives to guiding government approvals, we're the engine room of progress.

As a
Senior Project Officer
, you will support the administration of the Investment Attraction Fund. The Fund was established to encourage new investment in WA that will create local jobs and contribute to a more diversified economy. You will step into a role where strategy meets impact—where you'll help facilitate transformative projects that ignite industry growth across WA.

The Senior Project Officer will provide strategic support for the Fund's various programs, supporting the delivery of Department and Government objectives for the diversification of the State's economy.

A key focus of this role is data analysis—coordinating and delivering reporting tasks for stakeholders by collecting, organizing, interpreting, and presenting data in clear, actionable formats. Your insights will help shape reports tracking progress against key government priorities, while your communication skills will be essential in drafting briefings, and correspondence.

Success in this role will also require strong analytical capabilities and a deep understanding of how data drives decision-making. You'll collaborate across government and industry, build productive relationships, and guide policy implementation and evaluation. Working closely with colleagues to achieve branch outcomes, you'll uphold departmental integrity and contribute to a culture of excellence. If you're ready to make a meaningful impact through data-driven strategy, we encourage you to apply.

You'll be part of a dynamic team, collaborate with passionate professionals, engage with global stakeholders, and help shape policies that matter. You will step into a role where strategy meets impact—where you'll help facilitate transformative projects that ignite industry growth across WA.

If you're passionate about strategic thinking, collaborative engagement, and creating opportunities for Western Australians—this is your calling.
