Job description

Mallee District Aboriginal Services – Mildura VIC

Mallee District Aboriginal Services (MDAS) is a proud Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (ACCHO) committed to healing, supporting, serving and protecting Aboriginal communities across the Mallee region. Guided by our Elders and grounded by Our Lore, MDAS exists to strengthen the resilience, independence and wellbeing of our Mob. We walk alongside individuals and families through every stage of life – caring, empowering, educating and advocating so people can be their very best selves. Our programs span across health, wellbeing, family services, community support and culture. With deep community roots and strong regional presence, MDAS is moving confidently towards becoming a sector leading ACCHO known for its cultural authority and practical life-changing outcomes.

About the role

This is a fixed term role for 2 years.

The Data Analyst is responsible for collecting, consolidating, analysing and reporting organisational data from across MDAS systems to produce meaningful insights that support quality improvement, continuous improvement, service planning, accountability and evidence-based decision making. Reporting to the Quality and Improvements Manager, the role works collaboratively with Executive Leadership, Corporate Services, Health and Clinical Services, Quality and Risk, Program Managers and ICT to translate data into clear reporting products, dashboards and recommendations that improve organisational performance and outcomes for community.

The role supports the development of organisation-wide reports, dashboards and reporting frameworks, including Power BI where appropriate, by drawing data from multiple business and service systems. The position is not an ICT systems administration role; rather, it partners with ICT and business system owners to access, understand and use data safely and effectively, ensuring reporting is accurate, culturally informed, privacy compliant and focused on quality, governance and continuous improvement.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage the development and delivery of organisational reporting, dashboards and data insights to support strategic decision-making and performance monitoring.
• Manage data collection, analysis and reporting systems to ensure data integrity, governance, accessibility and continuous process improvement.
• Support organisational quality, compliance and risk management through performance monitoring, trend analysis and evidence-based recommendations.

Skills, Knowledge and Experience

Relevant qualifications in Data Analytics, Business Analytics, Information Technology, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Business, Quality Improvement, or a related discipline are desirable. Equivalent experience, systems capability, and a strong commitment to continuous learning and professional development will also be highly regarded.

Experience working within Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations (ACCHOs), health, community services, or the not-for-profit sector is desirable, with an understanding of service delivery environments and commitment to supporting community outcomes.

Other Requirements

• Current Working with Children Check
• Current National Police Check
• Current Drivers License

MDAS strongly encourages applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Applications will be reviewed as they are received and shortlisting and interviews may commence prior to the closing date of 28th October 2026.
