Description

Yuma

Did you know that the ACT Government aims to the most progressive jurisdiction in Australia for our workforce practices.
We may be small, but we are already recognised for leading the flexible and hybrid work agenda, and we are putting dedicated attention towards driving inclusive workforce cultures across the ACTPS, contemporary leadership practices which support trust and change, and working to encourage and embed innovation into the way we work.

We have an ambitious program of commitments and priorities but ultimately, we are here to help make the ACTPS a great place to work, and one where our people have the capabilities they need to deliver and thrive.

Due to our expanding program of work, we have a short-term vacancy to assist in a variety of Senior Executive events, programs, and other strategic business needs.

If you're an organised, enthusiastic and reliable Project Officer with a can-do attitude, we'd love you to join the Executive Leadership & Talent team.

Under the guidance of the Assistant Director, you will enable the successful delivery of a range of initiatives including leadership programs and induction, mobility placements, developing resources and programs to support adult learning, events, program communications, nominations, evaluation and reporting - all designed to support contemporary leadership aligned with the ACTPS core values and signature behaviours.

This role offers plenty of variety and no two days are likely to be the same.

To be successful in this role, you will be a proactive and organised contributor who enjoys regular stakeholder engagement.

You'll work with a team of enthusiastic colleagues who come from a variety of professional backgrounds, and have access to a range of professional development opportunities - which can be online, peer-based, on the job, or formal learning.

***
Diverse background?
As you would expect, we embrace workforce diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive workplace.

We offer a warm welcome to applicants who identify as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, people with disability, LGBTIQA+, Veterans, neurodiverse, and those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.

Hear about CMTEDD from some of our staff.

Need ACTPS experience?
Nope, you don't have to be from the ACTPS or public sector to apply. We love new and different ways of thinking and we'll help you learn our context (and acronyms).

Where can you work?

We have access to ongoing hybrid work arrangements including home-based and activity-based working (ABW) when working from the office (located at 220 London Circuit, Canberra City) and our new Innovation Centre.
