  • Building, managing, and maintaining strong relationships with key internal and external stakeholders through active engagement.
  • Applying structured analytical frameworks, research, and data inputs to form practical recommendations on complex issues.
  • Exercising sound judgement and initiative under limited supervision within governance and authorising arrangements.
  • Flexibly adapting to emerging priorities and managing competing demands in an evolving operating environment.

Ideally you will possess

  • Demonstrated experience in developing, implementing, and reviewing strategic policy, briefs, and reports.
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills, with a collaborative working style.
  • Proven ability to work independently, exercise sound judgement, and adapt flexibly to changing priorities.
