Vacancy Reference No. 714300

This is a Fixed Term Full Time appointment for 6 months with the possibility of extension(s). 

WA Health is committed to eliminating all forms of discrimination in the provision of our service. We embrace diversity and strongly encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, people from culturally diverse backgrounds and people with disabilities.

WA Health supports flexible working practices within the context of a quality health service. WA Health is committed to a smoke free environment across all buildings, grounds and vehicles.

WA Health is committed to growing the Aboriginal workforce as a part of WA Health’s Aboriginal Workforce Policy.  As a measure to achieve equality, Section 51 of the Equal Opportunity Act 1984 applies to this position.  Aboriginal people are encouraged to apply.
 
Eligibility to Apply: To be eligible for appointment, applicants must have a valid working visa. 
 
Other Conditions:  WA Health engages staff in positions of trust and responsibility. WA Health policies require applicants to undertake a criminal records screening and integrity checking as part of the appointment process. As well as undertaking a criminal record screening and integrity checking, you may also be required to undertake a working with children check (if required for the role) and a pre-employment health assessment. We may ask referees to comment on your integrity and past demonstration of ethical behaviour. Please note that adverse information does not necessarily disqualify an applicant but will be considered as part of the appointment process.

Whilst this selection process will initially be used to fill the above vacancy, it may also be used to fill other "similar" vacancies throughout the health service. In addition to this, should the successful applicant decline or vacate the advertised vacancy, then the next most suitable applicant may also be selected from this process. Both of these options remain valid for a period of twelve (12) months from when the authorised delegate endorses the recruitment decision.

Position Profile: This Compliance Officer undertakes proactive compliance activities in relation to the Medicine and Poisons Regulation Branch licences and permits. The position will be responsible for identifying industry compliance issues and contributing to the development and implementation of strategies to promote compliance and consumer protection. The role will also be responsible for liaising with industry and will be expected to demonstrate creativity when assessing and resolving problems that arise.

  • 12% employer contributed superannuation into a fund of your choice. For further information on superannuation click here.
