Senior executive roles

We work to deliver better outcomes, infrastructure and services for the people who live and work in NSW. Effective leadership is essential to our success as our innovative and forward-thinking leaders drive the change we want to see in the workplace and in the community.

We support our leaders through ongoing development and training opportunities.

Our Leadership Academy supports executives through programs that strengthen their skills to deliver a world class public sector and achieve outcomes for the people of NSW.

Our Senior Executive Fundamentals is a key resource designed to help senior executives in the first 12 to 18 months of their employment within the NSW Government sector.
