  • producing written reports with appropriate analysis and recommendations to senior stakeholders and other standard documents in line with procedural guidelines
About you

  • demonstrate strong stakeholder engagement with the ability to influence and negotiate at all levels
  • ideally have exposure to complex groups such as homelessness, drug and alcohol, and child protection
  • have the ability to practice ‘self-care', maintain a work/life balance, and reach out to colleagues, mentors, managers or external providers (including EAP) if required
