Establish and maintain trusted relationships with Traditional Owners, Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations, Elders, First Peoples representative bodies, government agencies and industry stakeholders to support meaningful engagement, co-design and shared decision-making.
Provide authoritative advice to senior leaders on First Peoples policy, engagement and partnership matters, including emerging issues, risks and opportunities impacting VicGrid's strategic objectives and operations.

What you will bring

Demonstrated understanding of the historical, social, and political context affecting First Peoples in Victoria and nationally, including Closing the Gap, the Uluru Statement from the Heart, and treaty and truth-telling processes.
Proven ability to design and implement First Nations-led policy, programs, and reform initiatives, grounded in cultural safety, co-design, and place-based engagement approaches.
Experience navigating complex public sector environments and influencing policy development at a whole-of-government level, including Cabinet processes and interdepartmental coordination.
Demonstrated success in building trusted, enduring relationships with First Nations communities, Traditional Owners, and Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations, as well as working collaboratively with government, NGOs, and industry stakeholders.
