A major government department is seeking a Communications Lead to join a high-profile, transformational data program. This position sits within a key business unit responsible for strategy, performance, and reporting.

This multi-year initiative will establish the organisation’s first centralised, unified data repository. The goal is to provide trusted, timely information to frontline and corporate staff, empowering them to make evidence-informed decisions that support the delivery of quality services.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead all communications activities, including strategic planning, project communications, marketing, and reputation management for the program.

• Align communication strategy with the OCM needs to effectively support and inform stakeholders through significant change.

• Develop and manage a consistent brand for the program that instils confidence and demonstrates relevance to stakeholders.

• Ensure the quality, consistency, and timely delivery of all messaging and materials across the program's multiple projects.

• Manage stakeholder engagement and consultation, working effectively with multiple, diverse stakeholder groups concurrently.
