Job Satisfaction at NSW Government

I am able to experience a range of different work in my role. I have been part of preparing for inspections from the Ombudsman and participating in both compliance work and a big project the team is working on. Compliance work generally relates to any questions or issues that come up and compare those questions to the legislation, and make an assessment on whether that it is compliant or breaches the legislation.

Each day varies but i am very involved with the team

Being a grad we often aren't stepping into someone else's role, so there isn't much BAU as I thought there would be. But volunteering for work and proactively seeking more things to do has helped keep me busy.

(1) Managing a grant program; (2) Other analytical and presentation tasks.

My work has mainly revolved around my learning. I have been tasked with summaries, brief writing, and secretariat support, as well as some minor secretariat work.

I enjoy doing the project-based research and sitting in on meetings etc. I have enjoyed the BAU work less - processing MC validations as I find it very mundane. I understand the need for balance and both types of work, however I seem to just be doing the BAU work at the moment. Understandably as everyone was very busy over EOFY.

working on the economic analysis of projects

Policy officer - I come up with and write advice about areas of legislative reform. This sometimes involves thinking up the structure of an entirely new piece of legislation, or can just be a small tinker to make an existing law work better.

My role is to work as an analyst helping audit the performance of departments/agencies/councils.

Administrative duties for the team

I have had great opportunities to contribute to my team's work and learn about the area of the NSW Government I am in. I am currently in my first rotation. I have been able to write a report, review content we receive, write emails, monitor our team inbox, lead meetings and debrief sessions, give a presentation, and write presentations and emails for the Director.

I coordinate meetings with program leads, and pick up any tasks that are given to me.

Assist with various projects under the Consumer Marketing focus, helping out on various projects and getting to know the organisation quite well.

Mostly getting raw data from other staff members and manipulating it and then creating reports.

Being exposed to and learning from all the roles and functions in my team.

Day-to-day responsibilities include reviewing policy and drafting instructions from various Departments across the NSW Government, having calls with instructors to discuss projects, document management and drafting of legislative instruments.

Current role is to support my manager, and some team members on the projects they are currently running. This can range from research, and recording consultations, to running small scale projects with supervision and input from my manager.
