You will bring:

• Previous experience in facilitation, team leadership, people management, HR, community engagement, training, stakeholder engagement or similar roles

• Strong communication and active listening skills

• The ability to facilitate productive conversations without dominating discussions

• Demonstrated cultural awareness and sensitivity when working with First Nations peoples

• A respectful, collaborative and professional approach

• Confidence engaging with diverse groups and perspectives

What you'll get in return


• A paid opportunity to contribute to an important national discussion

• The chance to support meaningful engagement with First Nations communities

• A short-term commitment of just a few hours on the day, plus a brief pre-event briefing

• Experience working alongside experienced event professionals and stakeholders
