Community Liaison Officer

A Community Liaison Officer works to improve the conditions of a community or a group within a community. You might listen to the concerns of community members and address them with governments or community service providers. You might also act as a liaison between a community and the organisations that operate in that community.

To be a Community Liaison Officer you’ll need to be an excellent communicator. You’ll work with people in various positions within a community so you’ll need to listen to their concerns and understand their needs. It’s important that you are organised and have good time management skills.
