PM&C fosters a diverse and inclusive workplace, where diversity is respected and celebrated. We are committed to ensuring all employees are supported to reach their potential and are empowered to be themselves.

We are establishing an LGBTI Champion and an LGBTI Employee Network, open to any interested LGBTI employees and supporters, who work together to promote LGBTI inclusion.

Liz Hefren-Webb First Assistant Secretary

I head the Schools, Information and Evaluation Division in the Indigenous Affairs Group. PM&C is a great place to work and somewhere good ideas and creativity are strongly valued. I have found the Australian Public Service to be a great employer for LBGTI employees over the nearly 20 years I have worked here, and my sexuality has not been an issue in any of the four departments I have worked. I have also managed to successfully combine parenthood and a rewarding career.

We are always looking for young talent, and what better job than providing advice and ideas to the Government of the day that can improve the lives of Australian people. I have also found Canberra a great place to live, once I learned to accept that it is not, and never will be, inner-city Sydney!
