NM00009468 Policy and Quality Officer HSO G6 20260612 (002).pdf

Do you want to be a part of a team that promotes and improves the health of its people and community?  Are you looking for an organisation that listens to what you have to say, supports flexible working arrangements, health and wellbeing and is focused on engagement and culture? Then look no further.

This is a Permanent Part Time appointment at 45.6 hours (0.6FTE) per fortnight.

What is our Policy and Quality Officer role?

We are looking for suitably qualified, highly motivated individuals with appropriate knowledge and experience to join our amazing Women's Health, Genetics and Mental Health Team working at Women and Newborn Health Service.

This role provides support for the Co-Directors in the development and implementation of key strategic priorities for women’s health within the directorate. This includes assistance with policy development, project support, research activities, and safety and quality compliance mechanisms as required by the program areas across Women’s Health, Genetics, and Mental Health.

While your qualifications and experience tell us part of your story, your values and attitude speak louder still. At NMHS, we aim to ensure our behaviours reflect our core values: Care, Respect, Innovation, Teamwork and Integrity.

Want to know more about this role?

We encourage you to contact Dannielle Orifici on 0411 203 870 to discuss how this role aligns with your personal and career interests.

What we offer

NMHS supports flexible working practices and consideration will be given to flexible work options, where operationally appropriate. In addition to the great salary, our employees enjoy an amazing range of benefits (North Metropolitan Health Service - Pay and Benefits) including:

  • Generous salary packaging to increase take-home pay
  • Professional and career development opportunities
  • Diverse and inclusive culture 

We think you’ll like it here

Our employees like working here, and we think you will too.  Watch this video to find out what they have to say. 

Ready to join our team?

Applicants are required to apply online www.jobs.wa.gov.au so allow enough time to complete the online application process and attach your documentation.  If you experience difficulties, please contact Employee Services on 13 44 77 for immediate assistance during business hours.

The JDF is attached for reference. Your application should include:

  • A statement addressing the selection criteria in no more than 2-3 pages (as outlined in the attached JDF)
  • A comprehensive CV that clearly shows your experience relevant to this role.
  • The names and contact details of two (2) professional referees. It is preferable for one of your referees to be your current supervisor or manager.  

Applicants must ensure their nominated referees are available to provide references when requested, as failure to do so may result in them being deemed unsuitable. 

Eligibility to apply: Australian citizenship or permanent residency is an essential requirement for applicants to be considered for permanent positions in the public sector. To be eligible for a fixed term appointment you must have documentary evidence of your entitlement to live and work in Australia for the period of the contract.

We engage staff in positions of trust and responsibility. Our policies require applicants to undertake a criminal records screening and integrity checking as part of the appointment process. You may also be required to undertake a working with children check (if required for the role) and a pre-employment health assessment. Our team 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 12 months from when the authorised delegate endorses the recruitment decision.

We foster an environment of equity and inclusion and strive to ensure everyone experiences a sense of belonging. Our people celebrate the rich diversity of our community and are committed to recruiting a team that is reflective of those we care for.

Our organisation is committed to growing the Aboriginal workforce as a part of our Aboriginal Health and Wellbeing Strategy. As a measure to achieve equality, Section 51 of the Equal Opportunity Act 1984 applies to this position. 

Our organisation upholds the social model of disability. We welcome applicants who have disability and endeavour to support reasonable workplace adjustments and flexibility. If you have any access needs or require adjustments to participate in the recruitment process, please contact the NMHS Talent Attraction Group (TAG) at email nmhs.talent@health.wa.gov.au.

Lodgement is system generated. Any submissions after or on, 4:00pm on the closing date will not be accepted.

We look forward to receiving your application.
