The Queensland Academy of Sport (QAS) is on a bold journey towards Brisbane 2032 and beyond. Following the extraordinary success of Queensland athletes at the recent Olympic and Paralympic Games, we are now focused on delivering even more medal-winning moments through to Los Angeles 2028 and our home Games in 2032.

This role will suit a qualified Sports Dietitian. Based in Brisbane, this role requires the provision of nutrition support to categorised podium, developing and emerging athletes in the QAS Diving program. Work will be conducted from Sleeman Sports Complex and other affiliated training facilities. You will also be responsible for developing strategies to support exceptional High-Performance outcomes.  

Some of your responsibilities will include:

• Explain to the athlete/s your role and the nutrition support available to them, at either a Sport induction or upon an athlete’s entry into a program. 
• Conduct initial nutritional screening using an agreed screening tool within one month of the athlete’s commencing in a QAS supported program.

• Upload accurate and timely consultation details into the QAS Athlete Management System (AMS) within 48 hours of consulting with an athlete. 
• Contribute relevant information into Athlete plans to reflect Athlete’s performance and health goals. 
• In the event of an athlete’s need, arrange an appointment within a reasonable and appropriate timeframe (generally within 48 hours) to consult with and treat that athlete at the sport training venue, or onsite at QAS, or at an agreed alternate location. 
• If additional treatment outside of designated number of days is required, the Supplier is requested to be available to consult with QAS athletes at an agreed location, and within a reasonable time frame. Prior approval from QAS is required to establish whether this will be at the athlete or QAS expense. Uploading notes from such consultations is required into the AMS as described in item 3.1(4) above. 
• Attend performance support meetings as agreed with the Head Coach and provide guidance around athlete health and proactive measures which aim to further improve athlete performance.
