When working for the Department of Human Services – Centrelink as a Senior Practitioner I was responsible for preparing quarterly reports with my fellow Senior Practitioners with respect to the performance of staff and teams across the National Student Network.

The result has already been positive, with data on staff in the Initial Liability area helping to select staff for additional SAM training that will be held in late September.
My skills in the area of stakeholder management are further evidences in my role as Incapacity Team Manager. As Manager for the Incapacity team during the RCG transition project I demonstrated an ability to be flexible and to communicate clearly with internal stakeholders across a broad cross section of DVA. In this role, I negotiated difficult transfers, agreed on work standards and guided my team through the transition process. In all aspects of this work I relied on my strong communication skills to ensure smooth processing; I clearly communicated changes and discussed the transition openly with concerned parties. By being open and clear I ensured the team and our clients were better prepared for the changes.
I understand that in any role within the APS, it is vital we have open communication networks and proactively participate in the workplace.
