The Role

Ready to Pivot, Influence Policy and Shape What's Next?

We're looking for a Policy Officer (0.6 FTE) to join our Policy, Advocacy and Standards Unit. Offering genuine flexibility, this part-time role can be worked across three, four or five days per week, making it an excellent opportunity for someone seeking meaningful work alongside other commitments.

Working with leading clinicians, you'll explore emerging trends, technologies and challenges that could shape the future of healthcare. Through research, analysis and collaboration with clinical experts, you'll consider the opportunities, risks and potential implications for the future practice of radiology and radiation oncology across Australia and New Zealand.

This is a role for someone who enjoys variety and can confidently adapt as priorities evolve. You'll research complex issues, draw insights from a range of sources, engage with clinical experts and stakeholders, and bring together diverse perspectives to support informed decision making. One day might involve exploring the implications of an emerging clinical or regulatory trend, while the next could see you preparing a briefing for senior stakeholders, contributing to a consultation or supporting committees and working groups.

We're looking for a curious and agile thinker who is comfortable navigating uncertainty, responding to emerging issues, and pivoting between priorities when needed. You'll enjoy learning, asking questions, and working collaboratively with subject matter experts to understand what emerging developments could mean in practice.

If you're interested in work that combines research, strategic thinking,



stakeholder engagement and prospect to contribute to the future of healthcare, we'd love to hear from you.
