ABOUT THE ROLE

In 2023, an independent Expert Advisory Committee was established by the Department of Health to consider how to improve access and equity of our health services for all Victorians. The Committee consulted with health service and sector leaders and found that although we have a world-class health services system with a committed and excellent workforce, like health systems across the world, it is under increasing strain and there is a need to deliver better, more connected care.
Overall, the Committee found that the system was often disconnected and hard to navigate, access to services was inequitable, and resources were sometimes insufficiently focused on patient care due to duplication and administrative inefficiencies. To provide solutions, the Committee developed the Health Services Plan.
The Project Manager / Coordinator will serve a pivotal role in the coordination of activities across the EMM LHSN as the networks moves towards and into formal commencement from 1 July 2025.
