Tender Description
This Tender is invited by the Issuer.
The Skills System Performance (SSP) team requires a specialist Data Scientist to support the continued development and use of the VET National Data Asset (VNDA). The role is responsible for designing, building and maintaining high‑quality, robust administrative data pipelines that underpin analysis of vocational education and training (VET) and higher education (HE) outcomes. The role also requires advanced econometric expertise, including the application of causal and statistical methods to measure tertiary outcomes and support modelling activities.
This position directly supports SSP’s critical analytical outputs and is essential to maintaining and leveraging VNDA to produce high‑quality skills and training analysis and modelling. VNDA is one of Jobs and Skills Australia’s most critical data assets, underpinning a wide range of analytical reports, system performance measures, and insights into Australia’s tertiary education and training landscape.
The role applies advanced data engineering, data architecture and confidentiality management skills to integrate and manage complex administrative datasets, ensuring VNDA delivers accurate, reliable and timely outputs for government and other stakeholders. By sustaining this infrastructure and applying advanced analytical capability to VNDA, the role enables JSA to consistently deliver trusted, evidence‑based insights to support policy development and decision‑making.
