About us

At the NSW Department of Education, we educate and inspire lifelong learners – from early childhood, through schooling to vocational education and training.

We ensure young children get the best start in life by supporting and regulating the early childhood education and care sector. We unlock excellence and unleash the potential of two-thirds of school children in NSW. We’re proudly public and the largest education system in Australia. We nurture opportunities for every learner to develop the skills needed for their chosen career path, helping shape the industries of tomorrow.

We respect and value Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as First Peoples of Australia.

The Education and Skills Reform division drives innovation, reform and policy development based on strategic analysis and evaluation, aligned with external relations for the education system. The division includes our Centre for Education Statistics and Evaluation and works with the non-government schools sector, vocational and higher education sectors, and other government departments.

About the role

Reporting to the Secretary of the Department of Education, the Deputy Secretary holds ultimate responsibility for the division's performance, ensuring that it meets its objectives under the NSW Plan for Education and delivery of governmental election commitments.

The Deputy Secretary, Education and Skills Reform will drive sustained reform across the education and tertiary sectors through delivery of strategic analysis, policy development and performance monitoring services, focused on the school transformation agenda and identification and evaluation of emerging planning and decision influences in the transitioning from early childhood to primary, secondary and tertiary / vocational education.

The role will lead a team of professionals, providing guidance, mentorship and support to ensure the division's workforce is equipped to deliver on its mandate. The role demands exceptional leadership, communication and stakeholder management skills.

About you

To be the Deputy Secretary, you will need to demonstrate the right skills and experience to be at the forefront of one of education’s challenging training systems. As a member of the senior leadership group, you will be a collaborative leader, exemplifying the department’s values and behaviours, and promote a culture of innovation and agility. You will be able to effectively manage complex legislative and ethical frameworks to achieve capability outcomes. You will demonstrate the capability to provide timely and accurate advice to senior leaders and Government on complex matters, have outstanding judgement, strategic awareness, and parliamentary and media acumen.

Given the significant scope and responsibility of the role, the successful candidate will possess a deep understanding of policy development with experience in the implementation and review of strategic frameworks across education systems. Strong project management skills are vital for overseeing projects within budget and schedule, coordinating teams, and ensuring quality control. The role is subject to political, media and public scrutiny and you will need to be a polished, fluent and effective communicator.

Other desirable leadership attributes include strong collaboration and stakeholder engagement skills; capabilities in leading and successfully driving teams; ability to articulate complex issues and influence the agenda.

To be successful in this role, you will have:

Knowledge of and commitment to implementing the Department’s Aboriginal Education Policy and upholding the Department’s Partnership Agreement with the NSW AECG and to ensure quality outcomes for Aboriginal people.
Appropriate qualifications in a relevant discipline.
Demonstrated extensive experience at a senior level in the management of major service deliverables in a large complex organisation.
Demonstrated understanding of and commitment to the value of public education.
Hold a valid clearance to work with Children (Working with Children Check).

As a condition of employment, successful candidates who have not previously worked for the department will be required to provide a current Working with Children Check (WWCC) Clearance number. This option would allow the WWCC to naturally expire without further communication needed with the employee. The employer obligations under the WWCC would apply for duration of the WWCC’s validity (up to 5 years).
