Data Coordinator, Coroners Prevention Unit
1 week ago
**About us**:
**The Coroners Court is responsible for**:
- Independently investigating deaths and fires. Certain deaths and fires are reported to the Coroners for independent investigation. Their investigations seek to establish the facts - when, where, how, and why the death or fire happened.
- Reducing preventable deaths. Wherever possible, the Coroner will suggest ways to prevent similar deaths or fires by making well informed and practical recommendations, based on the evidence before them.
- Promoting public health and safety and the administration of justice. The court regularly reports on data and trends regarding preventable deaths in Victoria to help inform public health responses.
About the role
The Coroners Prevention Unit (CPU) provides support to Coroners to fulfil their prevention mandate to improve public health and safety. To support this, the CPU maintains several databases containing information on deaths reported to and investigated by Coroners. The primary purpose of collecting the information in these databases is to assist Coroners to understand the circumstances and contexts underpinning Victorian deaths, so that opportunities can be identified to reduce the risk of preventable deaths occurring in future.
The Data Coordinator is responsible for leading a small team of Project Officers. Key accountabilities include:
- Overseeing the day-to-day operations of the CPU databases, including data coding and maintenance as well as extracting, collating, analysing, and reporting on coronial data.
- Managing suicide data sharing arrangements between the Coroners Court and the Department of Health, which is governed by a Memorandum of Understanding.
- Supporting the Manager of Policy and Research by undertaking tasks and projects associated with the provision and interpretation of best practice data.
**About you**:
- Experience in critically reviewing written material and extracting relevant information from it.
- The ability to plan and prioritise your workload and to work collaboratively with others.
- Proven expertise in collating data to write reports for a range of audiences.
- Experience in leading a team in a research or government policy setting is desirable, but not essential.
