Any further information about this vacancy:

The National Lived Experience Commission (NLEC) is an independent organisation registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC).

The Commission operates as a non-statutory systems intelligence body, focused on identifying structural failure, governance gaps, and patterns of preventable harm across health, disability, and human services systems.

This founding Chair role is part of establishing a working governance body designed to operate at the intersection of lived experience and institutional accountability.

The position involves leading board formation, setting governance standards, and ensuring the Commission operates with independence, discipline, and clarity of purpose.

This is not an advisory or symbolic position. It is an active governance role contributing directly to the establishment of an independent national body.
