Join us to shape the future of one of Australias greatest natural assets and protect it for future generations.

We are seeking people who want to contribute to a significant water reform program that aims to respond to the impacts of climate change, support community and industry needs, and improve access to water for First Nations people.

The Murray-Darling Basin Authority (MDBA) is an independent government agency which, in partnership with Basin governments, manages the MurrayDarling Basins water resources in the national interest. With the enactment of the Water Act 2007, the MDBA was established as an independent expertise-based statutory agency.

The MDBA aims to achieve a healthy working Basin for the benefit of all Australians. The MurrayDarling Basin contains a rich diversity of natural environments that are unique in Australia and the world. The Basin is also crucial to Australias economy and home to 2.3 million Australians, including people from over 50 First Nations. How we manage the Basin as a whole connected system, manage our water carefully, and protect it for future generations is set out in the Murray-Darling Basin Plan.

The Positions

We have two available positions for Assistant Directors. The roles are available within our Climate Adaptation and Decision-making Framework teams.

As an Assistant Director you will lead and deliver high quality policy research and advice that supports the work of the MDBA. Their key focus is policy development and coordination to support the Sustainable Water Management team objectives and greater Basin Plan Review deliverables.

These roles work closely with other parts of the Basin Plan Portfolio and the Murray-Darling Basin Authority, other agencies of the Australian Government, the Basin States and Territories and wider stakeholders.

Your key responsibilities:

Manage a small team to deliver high quality work outputs against approved project plans and timeframes, including managing competing priorities, delivery risks and finding solutions to complex and emerging issues. Using an evidence-based approach, lead policy development coordination, including through consultancies, and procurement of contractors. Develop and maintain close working relationships with the Basin Plan Review teams, internally within the MDBA, as well as engaging with other government and non-government organisations, and members of the wider community. Assist with the preparation of briefing material, correspondence, submissions, contracts and other policy or operational documents. Work collaboratively and negotiate effectively on behalf of the agency to influence stakeholders and subject matter experts to deliver agreed business outcomes on a variety of complex or sensitive issues. Provide strategic advice and support to the Basin Plan Review leadership team on strategic issues, communication and engagement. Bring together key elements of the Basin Plan Review and determine the best method of approach using evaluative judgement.

What we offer you

You will have the opportunity to work on projects where you contribute to shaping the future of one of Australias greatest natural assets and protect it for future generations. At the MDBA you will undertake a variety of interesting and challenging work. You will have the opportunity to
