The role (in a nutshell)
You'll work in a small, fast‑moving team that helps translate big system reforms into practical delivery across schools and the Education Support Office.

* Enjoy working with a wide range of stakeholders and keeping momentum going
* Understand government business and/or school improvement
* Want to do work that matters and improve outcomes and inclusion for ACT students
* Want to work in supportive team that values initiative, pragmatism and good humour
