Details: Infrastructure Canberra is seeking a highly organised, proactive and collaborative Senior Officer to support the delivery of the ACT Government's Pathways Hub initiative. The Pathways Hub plays a critical role in supporting the construction industry to create social value outcomes, build workforce capability, and connect underrepresented and disadvantaged people with employment, training and career opportunities aligned to the ACT's infrastructure pipeline.
Working closely with the Director and Program Director, you will coordinate stakeholder engagement, workforce development initiatives, participant support, program delivery and business operations across both the physical and virtual components of the Pathways Hub. You will develop and maintain strategic partnerships with government, industry, training providers and community organisations, while providing high-quality advice, reports, communications and program support.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced professional who thrives in a dynamic environment and can manage competing priorities with sound judgement, initiative and professionalism. The role requires strong relationship management skills, the ability to lead projects and continuous improvement activities, and a commitment to delivering positive outcomes for participants, employers and the broader community, while embodying the ACTPS values of respect, integrity, collaboration, innovation and Yindyamarra.
We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where people with diverse thoughts, lived experience, and perspectives can thrive and contribute their unique talents to the ACTPS and ACT community. We encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people with disability, people with culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, veterans, younger and older workers, and people with diverse genders, sexes and sexualities to apply.
Eligibility/Other requirements:
Highly Desirable:
- Relevant tertiary qualifications and/or relevant experience in construction, business, social inclusion, training and/or education.
- Experience in relationship management, network building and stakeholder engagement.
- Experience in delivering and/or an understanding of social procurement outcomes, including an understanding of social procurement principles, frameworks, and best practices.
Note: A Merit Pool will be established from this selection process and will be used to fill vacancies over the next 12 months. Selection may be based on application and referee reports only.
Opportunities for flexible working options could include hybrid working, being a combination of working from home, designated office based and FlexiSpace working locations across the ACT, part-time hours, job-sharing, flexible start, and finish times.
This role works in an activity-based working (ABW) environment. Under ABW arrangements, officers do not have a designated workstation/desk.
How to Apply: Please provide a two-page pitch outlining your skills and experience relevant to the role, along with a copy of your current curriculum vitae and the name of two referees.
Applications should be submitted via the Apply Now button below.
Note: Under the ACTPS employment framework you may be placed in another role where required for the efficient administration of the service.
The ACT public service is committed to closing the gap, underpinned by the belief that when Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have a genuine say in the design and delivery of policies, programs and services that affect them, better life outcomes are achieved.
