The Department of Families, Fairness and Housing (DFFH) works hard to create equal opportunities for all Victorians to live a safe, respected and valued life.

Our areas of focus are child protection, housing, disability, the prevention of family violence, multicultural affairs, LGBTIQA+ equality, veterans, women and youth.
The work we do benefits thousands of Victorians, particularly those who are disadvantaged and vulnerable.

We work in a variety of community-based settings, including people's homes, residential facilities and secure settings across metropolitan, rural and regional Victoria.

We are committed to developing and supporting a workforce that is well equipped and highly motivated.
All jobs can be worked flexibly, and we encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and people from diverse backgrounds and abilities.

THE ROLE An exciting opportunity exists for a committed and passionate individual to join the Office for Youth as a Senior Policy and Project Officer.

In this role you will primarily be responsible for managing key funded initiatives to improve outcomes for young people in Victoria.
Funded initiatives you lead will support young people to realise their full potential through opportunities for skill development, access to career pathways and community engagement.

You will also work in a dynamic team across a variety of areas in the Youth portfolio to provide high quality strategic analysis and policy advice from a whole of government perspective to the Minister for Youth, the Secretary and Senior DFFH executives.

We are seeking someone who is flexible, well organised and a supportive team player who can build relationships across government and community sectors, young people and with community members.
The ideal candidate will demonstrate a strong understanding of grants and program management, along with strong policy and analytical skills and an interest in the issues impacting on young people across Victoria.

ACCOUNTABILITIES INCLUDE Manage programs and oversee all stages of the program lifecycle, including developing business cases, managing grant payments and establishing strong relationships with funded stakeholders to support ongoing monitoring and evaluation processes. Provide analysis and expert advice to the Minister for Youth, the Secretary and senior executives on a wide range of matters of strategic and/or critical impact on policy and program implementation in relation to young people and the youth sector in Victoria.
This includes analysing and critically evaluating information and proactively identifying potential implications and risks of proposed policy or program options. Provide clear, timely, accurate, succinct and solution-focused written and verbal briefings, correspondence and reports, on a range of policy and program issues affecting young people. COVID-19 VACCINATION The department strongly recommends (but does not mandate) that employees maintain their COVID-19 vaccination status in accordance with current ATAGI (Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation) advice, given their individual circumstances.
As of June 2023, DFFH does not require evidence of COVID-19 vaccination status.
