WHO WE ARE:
Victoria State Emergency Service (VICSES) is a volunteer-based emergency service. Our highly skilled and equipped Volunteers are trained comprehensively in a wide range of emergency environments. To minimise the impact of emergencies when they occur and strengthen the community's capacity to recover swiftly and safely, VICSES focuses on working with communities and partners in building resilience to achieve more aware, informed and prepared communities. We support them to understand their risk and the relevance of taking action before, during and after emergency events.
As the largest road rescue network in Australia we have specialist teams that provide a 24/7 response to road accident and trauma incidents. We assist Victoria Police in search and rescue operations, and play an important role in supporting the Country Fire Authority (CFA), Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV), Parks Victoria and the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA) during major bushfire and emergency incidents.
ROLE SUMMARY:
Emergency Service Organisations within Victoria have a responsibility to provide incident management (IM) capability during emergencies. This may be during emergencies where the agency is the control agency or a support agency. Incident management roles are identified in the Australasian Inter-service Incident Management System (AIIMS) structure and are essential for the efficient and effective running of incidents.
VICSES is committed to enhancing our IM service delivery, including increasing our IM capability and capacity with volunteers and staff members performing IM roles.
The Incident Management Capability Support Officer role will link closely with identified volunteers, staff and respective Senior operational members. This is one of two positions that plays a critical and active role in linking these members to options around IM pathways.
This position will support the VICSES Western Region and VHO/SLC/SFC. Depending on the successful candidate the position may be based in Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, or Sunshine Office.
Occasional evening and weekend work may be required. This is a non-operational position.
