Description:
Two exciting opportunities (one permanent role and a 6-month temporary role, with the possibility of extension) to be part of the Dept of Housing and Public Works' Corporate Governance team.Please note that due to the recent Machinery of Government change, this department is now the Department of Housing and Public Works.
As a Senior Project Officer, you will be responsible for supporting our team's lead role in a range of strategic governance activities that are vital to the effective, transparent and accountable operations of the department.

No matter the stream, the role is also responsible for providing professional and timely advice to divisions and senior leaders and working with stakeholders to achieve outcomes.
