Delivery (The most significant contribution of the delivery role relates to outcome delivery and/or effective resource management. This may include development of delivery responses for policy objectives. Delivery roles are accountable for a measurable impact on the agency or APS as a whole (e.g. achievement of objectives through the management of financial, human and physical resources). This may be directed to an ongoing delivery program, integration of multiple programs for delivery or to a finite government initiative.) | 14‡ | 38 |
Public policy and program design (The most significant contribution of the public policy and program design job role relates to the provision of policy advice, reflecting research and analysis of financial and other implications and stakeholder views obtained through consultations, and articulation of policy in policy statements, regulatory or financial measures and legislation. The role also includes program design but not program implementation—the latter would be included in Delivery.) | 19 | 26 |
Regulatory (The most significant contribution of the regulatory role relates to information gathering and risk assessment, and the design and implementation of compliance and enforcement programs within a governance framework.) | 28‡ | 9 |
Professional/specialist (The most significant contribution of the professional/specialist job role is the provision of technical, professional, specialist, or strategic advice. This advice has a primary influence on adopted strategies, plans and targets and outcomes in terms of effectiveness or efficiency.) | 37† | 24 |
