You will also bring:

- A graduate tertiary qualification or relevant applicable experience
- Experience in building and maintaining relationships and networks with a diverse range of stakeholders
- Considerable experience working with complex and ambiguous issues
- Highly effective planning and organisational skills, with a strong focus on delivery
- Strong written and verbal skills with the ability to communicate complex issues and concepts clearly, succinctly and with influence
- Personal integrity, sound judgement and an honest and ethical approach
