FW's Head of Government Relations, Alex Grant, in conversation with two exceptional women from the Australian Public Service.

With more and more women in leadership changing the culture of government agencies from the top-down, the Australian Public Service (APS) is an employer of choice for women. Along with representative leadership (50% of roles at senior executive level are held by women), the public service offers competitive and regularly reviewed salaries, a flexible and inclusive working environment and a strong values and merit-based culture.

Our very own Head of Government Relations, Alex Grant, recently led a discussion with two exceptional women from the APS – Sarah Burr, Acting Assistant Secretary at the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and Jing-ting Chen, Senior Advisor at the National Indigenous Australians Agency.
