  • Review, interpret, and consolidate complex technical and business materials into accessible documentation
  • Maintain document templates, standards, and quality controls to ensure consistency across all outputs
  • Manage your own work schedule and priorities while delivering on tight deadlines
  • Champion documentation standardisation, style, and alignment to government writing guidelines

Essential Skills & Experience

  • 7+ years’ experience as a Technical Writer, ideally in digital transformation, multi-platform systems, or enterprise IT environments
  • Proven ability to produce high-quality documentation for technical and non-technical audiences
  • Strong knowledge of technical writing principles, documentation frameworks, and quality control
  • Experience interpreting technical specifications, functional requirements, user stories, and policies
  • Ability to work autonomously and manage multiple projects
  • Strong stakeholder engagement, communication, and facilitation skills
  • Familiarity with Microsoft solutions and data-driven systems preferred

Desirable Attributes
