Job description

Business Improvement and Projects Partner

Business Improvements & Projects Partner
Permanent Full Time - Casino

The Richmond Valley is in the heart of the Northern Rivers, with wide open spaces and room to grow. We're a down-to-earth, friendly community - where you can still enjoy the welcome of a country town, a family holiday by the beach, or a campfire under the open sky.

It's a place of opportunity, where you can get a start in life or find the change you've been looking for - build a home, raise a family, or buy your first acreage. Success is earned through hard work, persistence, and the courage to get back on your feet in hard times.

Our organisation is defined by integrity and passion in what we do. When challenges come, we endure, we recover, and we rise once again to rebuild. Our people are connected through a shared love of this place and in serving our community.

We are seeking a proactive and organised Business Improvement & Projects Partner to support strategic priorities, coordinate key projects and drive business improvement across Council. Working closely with Senior Leaders and the Director, you'll use your communication, analytical and project management skills to streamline processes, deliver corporate initiatives and achieve positive outcomes for Council.

About you

This is an exciting opportunity for a detail-oriented, proactive professional with a positive attitude. You are -

• A strong communicator, both written and verbal
• Flexible, adaptable and responsive to change
• Able to work well within a small team and autonomously

About the role

The Business Improvement & Projects Partner works in partnership with Senior Leaders under the guidance of the Director to achieve corporate plan deliverables, manage initiatives and projects, implement efficient systems and processes and ensure effective resolution of directorate matters. The role also provides administrative and business support to Senior Leaders, including preparation of high-level correspondence, briefings, reports, presentations, amongst other communication and business needs. This role functions as a key liaison and hands-on operational contact point for administering corporate and business-related matters, particularly issues that span over multiple teams and expertise areas both within and outside the directorate. The role provides adaptive ongoing support for Senior Leaders in achieving operational, strategic and technical outputs.
