We have an ambitious five-year strategic plan that aims to take The Foundation even closer to realising our vision of a world in which no person is needlessly blind and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people exercise their right to good health.

THE OPPORTUNITY
The Senior Policy Advisor is accountable for leading the development of public policy, providing strategic advice and the execution of related systemic advocacy in multilateral affairs aligned to The Foundation's Strategy.
The role works closely with the Director, Global Policy & Advocacy and will help drive a world leading policy agenda at the inter-governmental level and with UN agencies to elevate eye health as a social, economic and development issue and an integral part of achieving universal health coverage.

ABOUT YOU
You will be, above all a strategic and systems thinker, with a well-tuned intuition for deciphering complex policy environments and fostering strong relationships with a broad range of stakeholders in the process.
You will be able to create content that resonates both internally and externally and communicates effectively across cultures and a diverse spectrum of audiences.
You will have a proven ability to drive towards achieving policy and advocacy objectives, even when the journey is unclear and the landscape is constantly evolving.
With great project management and analytical skills, you will be able to turn issues into solvable problems, turning creative ideas into practical solutions.
You will be flexible and able to pivot ideas and tasks to meet the changing needs of the business and work well in a culturally diverse environment.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Develop robust organisational level public policy positions on priority issues through policy analysis and internal and external research and consultation.
Foster and strengthen relationships with key external stakeholders and alliances related to priority policy matters and maintain primacy of knowledge, opportunities for engagement and undertake systemic advocacy to influence multilateral and inter-governmental institutions and platforms in collaboration with the Global Policy & Advocacy Team.
Provide sound advice on public policy matters related to portfolios of work to senior management and staff at the head office and country level.
Support policy translation, knowledge sharing and capacity building from the global organisational level to individual country context and vice versa in collaboration with country teams and staff across divisions.
Support and manage the pursuit of opportunities to influence Australian aid and development policy aligned to government relations priorities.
Manage and develop expert written materials, such as briefings, discussion papers, public submissions and public commentary pieces, to inform and advance The Foundation's advocacy and government engagement agenda and profile as a thought leader in global eye health advocacy.
Contribute to the development of a sophisticated and effective advocacy and government engagement capability and culture across The Foundation from the global to local level, through management and coordination support for the functions of the Advocacy and Government Engagement Leadership Group.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED TO SUCCEED
Relevant tertiary qualifications and a minimum 5 years' experience or a minimum 10 years' experience in a relevant discipline, political office or government agency; social science; public health; public policy or other related field.
Strong understanding and demonstrated working knowledge of multilateral and inter-governmental institutions, particularly UN institutions.
