Job Satisfaction at NSW Government

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.

Helping members in my teams with tasks which they may not have time for or need extra assistance on

My main tasks include undertaking legal and policy research, preparing research notes, drafting case summaries and journal article summaries for annual reports, attending podcast recordings and assistance with editing, and reviewing law reform submissions from the public.

My day is full but I am not overworked. I complete a variety of tasks, some creative, some more planning, some strategic.

I work on lots of different tasks that are relevant to my agency, helping my team to complete ministerial briefs, research projects, event planning etc.

I float around and help many teams to learn what they all do (I am a graduate, only here for 6 months).

Admin tasks, responding to tickets

I am a graduate within the Performance, Experience & Communication division of an agency. The content is broad because we work across all of the individual delivery groups, and we use cutting edge design thinking tools and mindsets to frame and address business problems. This includes lots of workshopping, gathering and analysing customer (internal) data and presenting it back.

Currently I'm in a contract management team, taking minutes and assisting in writing a process document for managing one of our contracts.

Facilitate workshops and development in the departments 10 year plan

Assisting my team with administrative tasks, researching issues and documents, processing data, supporting others with other tasks.

Raising Security Awareness in the organisation through creating, delivering and reflecting on the effectiveness of these activities. It is project based work that I am enjoying.

Some days are busy but most are quite quiet

The work is undemanding with respect to skill levels. Day-to-day responsibilities are often difficult to undertake due to slow response times from coworkers.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.
