- Provide high quality written and verbal policy advice to the Government, Minister and Executive in relation to veterans' issues, including health and mental health, transition initiatives and grant programs, and drafting associated documents including ministerial and executive submissions and correspondence;
- Interpret and draft policy relevant to the Deputy President Group and develop new policy proposals, including policy costings;

- Work collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders.
- Strong organisational skills including the ability to effectively prioritise to meet deadlines, manage competing tasks and demonstrated initiative and problem solving skills.
- Project management, including planning and scheduling.
- Procurement and contract management skills.
