Virtual Community Manager (Skills Insight)

The Skills Insight community is an online community of interest and practice, focused on skills and training standards and innovation across 13 industry sectors.

Research Specialist (Skills Insight)
This is a chance to become a key member of a values driven community of practice tasked with informing strategic inputs into upskilling the workforce of the future.
This specialist research role will work predominately to support Skills Insight in delivering outcomes in workforce planning and industry stewardship activities.
The ideal candidate would have experience in a similar role, bringing strengths in qualitative research.

This role requires highly developed and demonstrated facilitation and stakeholder engagement skills in the context of the VET sector and/or within government. Exemplary communication, an inquisitive mindset and experience in gathering industry intelligence, identifying emerging trends and predicting affects on future training is ideal, as is your willingness to work collaboratively with all stakeholders, cross functional teams, and committees. Flexibility and willingness to travel regionally is a requirement of this role.
Applicants must reside in NSW.
Who should apply?
Skills Insight is an equal opportunity employer. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds. While many of our staff have come from the sectors we work with or the education system, their experience covers a wide range of roles and industries and they bring with them skills that we need in our work. They share an adaptable, inquisitive and conscientious approach to their work and a commitment to open and respectful collaboration. The ideal candidate for any role at Skills Insight would share these traits, supporting our commitment to working in ways that are trustworthy, flexible and transparent.
