Full Job Description

Closes: 23 July 2026

Classification: Administrative Services Officer Class 4
Salary: $86,750 - $93,416 plus superannuation
Position No: 71588
Directorate: Health and Community Services
Advertised (Gazettal date): 09 July 2026
Contact Officer: Catriona Meere on [email protected] or (02) 6205 7065

Details: The Health and Community Services Directorate is seeking a highly organised and proactive Executive Assistant to support two Executive Branch Managers leading the Procurement and Sector Funding and Governance, Assurance and Risk branches. These teams deliver critical services and functions that support the Directorate and the broader ACT community. As an Executive Assistant, you will play a key role in ensuring the smooth operation of executive activities by managing complex diaries, coordinating meetings and events, preparing briefing materials and agendas, and overseeing executive correspondence and inbox management. You will also provide administrative support through invoice processing, branch financial administration, travel coordination, information management, and business support activities, including managing stationery and IT requests. Working closely with other executive support staff, you will contribute to a collaborative approach that delivers seamless support across the Division.

We are looking for someone with experience in administrative or executive support within a fast-paced environment who enjoys being at the centre of a busy workplace. You will have excellent organisational skills, strong attention to detail, and the ability to manage competing priorities while remaining calm and professional under pressure. You will be comfortable working within established processes while demonstrating initiative, adaptability and sound judgement when circumstances change.

The successful applicant will have strong skills in Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel and Teams, along with the ability to use information management systems such as TRIM/Objective. You will be an effective communicator who builds positive working relationships with a diverse range of stakeholders across the Directorate and ACT Government.
This is a great opportunity to be part of a team that values collaboration, respect and supporting one another through busy and sometimes challenging periods.

Health and Community Services Directorate (HCSD) is an inclusive employer where all people are respected and valued for their contribution. We strongly encourage and welcome applications from Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people, People with Disability, people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, veterans, mature age workers and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer (LGBTIQ) people.

Note: A merit pool or merit list will be established from this selection process and will be used to fill vacancies over the next 12 months.

How to Apply: Please submit a two-page pitch addressing the capabilities required to perform the role, along with your current curriculum vitae and contact details for two referees.

Applications should be submitted .

Note: Under the ACTPS employment framework you may be placed in another role where required for the efficient administration of the service.

The ACT public service is committed to closing the gap, underpinned by the belief that when Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have a genuine say in the design and delivery of policies, programs and services that affect them, better life outcomes are achieved. More information can be found here ACT Closing the Gap Implementation Plan - ACT Government Transparency Portal.
