    Australian Government Department of Defence background
    Description

    The Role
    This is an opportunity for finance and data governance professionals with strong accounting and data management capabilities to work within a small multi-disciplined team of professionals, supporting finance business stakeholders during a period of major system and organisational change.

    Your key responsibilities may include:

  • Influencing and shaping finance data and information policy and strategies, implementing guidance documentation integral to good data management.
  • Establishing centralized finance data governance and management practices across complex, large and sensitive data assets within the finance domain.
  • Leading the planning, acquisition, storing, cataloguing, destroying and archiving of finance data across the data lifecycle.
  • Optimising processes, encouraging consistency across business areas, championing data quality and resolving complex data issues.
  • Collaborating with other data professionals, business stakeholders, and IT specialists to drive system and process changes that enable the organisation to realise strategic goals.
  • Coaching and training other data managers, and contribute to developing data management capability.
  • About our Team
    Defence has adopted a federated approach to enterprise data governance. A federated data governance model can be described as a 'hub' and 'spoke' model. For Defence, the central 'hub' represents the Data Division under the leadership of the Chief Data Integration Officer (CDIO) and the central 'spoke' for Finance Group being the Directorate of Financial Information Management (DFIM). This means that the execution of data governance and management practices are decentralised ensuring flexibility for the Groups and Services accommodating their respective needs.

    DFIM plays an active role as custodians of the finance data assets. This includes oversight, standardisation and coordination of data governance, establishing foundational data management practices and capabilities, articulating data requirements, facilitating data sharing, improving and maintaining data quality, establishing curated datasets and integrated data warehouses and supporting analytics and business intelligence teams across DFG. DFIM operates a small but evolving team out of Victoria Barracks Melbourne.

    Our Ideal Candidate
    You are a capable, flexible problem solver with strong data management, analytical and conceptual skills and are able to operate as part of a multi-disciplined team. You will be required to identify, anticipate and respond to stakeholders' needs and expectations to achieve Defence outcomes. You will be accountable to lead a team, set work priorities, communicate effectively, manage workflow and resources whilst working in a dynamic and busy environment.

    Core competencies we are targeting include:
  • People's leader, influential communicator, develops team with inclusive style.
  • Accountable for providing clear and consistent communication, setting clear performance and behavioural standards, managing performance, delegating responsibility and guiding and developing people.
  • Demonstrated ability to drive sustainable change partnering collaboratively across an organisation and externally.
  • Ability to influence with strong written/verbal communication.
  • Collaborative approach with a strong client focus.
  • Build and sustain stakeholder engagement, including the ability to communicate with influence and negotiate effectively.
