****NOTE TO SELLERS: PLEASE READ BEFORE SUBMITTING QUESTIONS****

Based on common questions to our roles, the following should read before asking questions about the role.

Applicants should understand AMSA's business and our mission. The Project teams are small resource groups working closely with other business teams and stakeholders, so ability to perform cohesively in this space is key.

Candidates must only be proposed if they have a genuine interest in working in a dynamic environment, be considered a good fit for a high performing team in a small organisation and have been vetted against the must have and desirable criteria.

Responses MUST include statements against all the criteria. Candidates that do not address the criteria in their submission may not be considered.

Agencies should not submit candidates that do not meet ALL the mandatory criteria.

This role is CANBERRA BASED. AMSA will not consider options for candidates to work outside of the ACT. Pending return to work status, the role is ON SITE in Braddon.

This is a new position, with no incumbent and is not a market test.

Questions regarding rate and budget will not be answered. A rate has deliberately not been set. Vendors should price candidates competitively for the Canberra market. AMSA will use the Digital Marketplace rate guide to determine a suitable average rate.

Timeline for start is a guide only and will depend on evaluation, contract and notice period.
