Role Title: Policy Modernisation Intern
Organisation: Cystic Fibrosis WA
Internship Period: Semester 1 (February - May)
Location: Nedlands (QEII Medical Campus)
Our current policies and procecures are mixed together. The role will involve separating out procedures from policies in the first instance. With our existing policies, the role will involve reviewing these policies (recommending those which are unnecessary), consolidating where one simplified policy can cover several existing; and updating / contemporising to meet current and relevant best practices and/or legislation. Consultation with key staff members across several departments (fundraising, services, IT) will be required for input on relevant policies to that department with possible engagemement with external stakeholders for best practice policies in a similar NFP domain (ie an internet search or direct contact with similar NFP organisations on their relevant policies).
The role will also involve classifying policies into relevant groups (i.e. HR, Operational).
Should time allow, we would additionally like to have our procedures simplifed in a similar manner.
Our VISION: Thriving individuals, families and communities. Our PURPOSE: To improve the lives of people and communities impacted by cystic fibrosis, respiratory conditions, and rare diseases. Our FOCUS: Empowering and supporting individuals and communities we work with through community based services, peer connection, information, education,
advocacy and research.
