- Lead and develop the FCAV team, building our people and organisational performance and capability
- Advocate for and investigate new service models, programs and partnerships for improvements in Out of Home Care
- Manage the development and implementation of the services, work plan and projects in accordance with funding agreements and the organisation’s strategic plan.
