Sarah Nattey has more than 20 years’ experience as an Australian Public Servant, across a variety of portfolios including workplace relations, Indigenous affairs, gender equality, infrastructure investment, regional development and local government. Engaging with stakeholders to understand the challenges and opportunities they face, combining it with credible data and using that intelligence to inform future actions of government, is something she enthusiastically and energetically embraces. She utilises these experiences to respond to policy and program priorities, including those relating to resilience and recovery in regional Australia. Earlier this year, Sarah completed her Master of Leadership and uses her lived experience and knowledge to mentor colleagues, build quality stakeholder relationships and foster a culture of inclusion in the workplace.
