Full Job Description

Agency Purpose

The Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) is an independent statutory authority established by the Australian Government to maintain an impartial and independent electoral system for eligible voters through active electoral roll management, efficient delivery of polling services, and targeted education and public awareness programs.

The AEC’s values and commitments

The AEC values and commitments are an essential component of our operating environment and frame how AEC staff work. The AEC's focus is on electoral integrity through the values of quality, agility and professionalism.

The Team

The Event Financial Management team plays a critical role in the successful delivery of Australia's electoral events. The team provides financial planning, forecasting, analysis and reporting to support the effective management of election funding and expenditure. Working closely with stakeholders across the AEC, the team helps ensure electoral events are delivered efficiently, transparently and in accordance with legislative and governance requirements.

The Opportunity

As an APS6 Finance Officer, you will contribute to the planning, management and reporting of electoral event finances. You will develop expenditure forecasts, analyse financial and operational data, prepare event costings and provide insights to support informed decision-making. The role also supports financial governance activities, including month-end processes and the delivery of financial guidance and training to stakeholders. You will have opportunities to build strong working relationships across the organisation and contribute to continuous improvements in financial processes, reporting and controls.

To excel you’ll have:

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret financial and operational data, identify trends and risks, and provide practical recommendations.
Experience in budgeting, forecasting, costing or financial analysis, including the development of evidence-based financial insights and projections.
Well-developed financial acumen, including knowledge of public sector financial management, governance and budgeting frameworks, or the ability to quickly acquire this knowledge.
Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills, with the ability to build productive relationships, consider diverse perspectives and present complex financial information clearly.
A proactive and service-oriented approach, including the ability to take ownership, exercise sound judgement, manage competing priorities and deliver quality outcomes.
A commitment to continuous improvement, with experience enhancing financial processes, reporting, systems or controls to improve efficiency and effectiveness.

Desirable

Tertiary qualifications in business, accounting or economics.
CA/CPA qualification or working towards qualification.
Previous experience developing dashboards and financial models.

Eligibility

AEC employees must be Australian citizens.
Any person who is, and seen to be active in political affairs, and intends to publicly carry on this activity, may compromise the strict neutrality of the AEC and cannot be considered.
Applicants are required to consent to, undergo, obtain and maintain a character clearance.
Applicants are required to consent to, undergo, obtain and maintain the security clearance required for this role.
