The Correspondence Officer is a frontline point of contact for the Leader's office and works closely with the Correspondence & Policy Support Officer to ensure that constituents who contact the office receive a timely and appropriate response.
The role focuses on constituent correspondence, using office databases such as Outlook, Google Workspace and VoterID to manage and track correspondence. It is part of the Brisbane electorate office team and links into the national Greens correspondence team.
At 0.8 FTE (four days per week), the role provides consistent daily correspondence and front-of-house coverage — including inbox and meeting-request triage previously carried within the Diary Manager/PA function — which is particularly important as the Executive Assistant steps out of the front-of-house roster and is in Canberra during sitting weeks.
