    A great experience delivering work that was having a real impact for the Community.
    The good thingsA very supportive working environment with an organisational strategy and purpose that is strong and meaningful.
    The challengesBeing a Government body, there are challenges in innovation and change due to the natural red tape. However, these were not detrimental in my experience to the work or purpose of the organisation.
