About the role
The Cancer Navigation Service is a key component of the Australian Government's Australian Cancer Nursing and Navigation Program (ACNNP). This national initiative is enhancing and expanding Cancer Council's existing information and support services to provide more timely, equitable, and culturally safe access to information, navigation, and support for anyone impacted by cancer.
