The Opportunity

Provide professional front-of-house and information support services to parliamentary clients, helping them access the Parliamentary Library's collections, services and expertise.

Work in one of Australia's most iconic workplaces and contribute to supporting the Parliament of Australia through the delivery of professional client services and information support.

The Department of Parliamentary Services (DPS) is recruiting for a Client Services Officer within the Client Services and Engagement team, in the Parliamentary Library.

We are seeking a client‑focused and adaptable individual to fill a current vacancy and to establish a merit pool for ongoing and non‑ongoing opportunities that may arise over the next 18 months.

The Client Services and Engagement Team supports Senators, Members of Parliament and their staff by facilitating access to the Parliamentary Library’s services, collections and expertise. The team plays an important role in ensuring parliamentary clients receive timely, accurate and professional assistance in support of their parliamentary and representational duties.

The work is varied and fast‑paced. Team members respond to client enquiries, provide guidance on Library services, assist clients to access information and resources, and support engagement, outreach and training activities, often within tight timeframes and in a politically sensitive environment.

This is a front-facing client service role where you will regularly assist parliamentary clients in person, online and by phone. The role involves locating and retrieving information and resources using a range of online systems, databases and library tools.

Who we are looking for

We are seeking individuals with a strong client service focus, sound judgement and the ability to work effectively as part of a team. You will have well-developed communication skills, strong digital literacy and the ability to locate information, and provide clear, accurate and professional assistance to clients.

You will be organised, adaptable and able to manage competing priorities while following established procedures. You will be motivated to learn, take feedback on board, and contribute positively to a supportive team environment. An interest in parliamentary processes and a commitment to providing impartial support are essential.

At the PSL3 level, you will work with guidance and support from more senior staff, while being expected to manage your own tasks and contribute positively to team outcomes.

Job Specific Requirements:

Ability to work overtime shifts (5 pm to 8 pm, Monday to Wednesday) during parliamentary sitting weeks.
Library experience and/or a recognised library and information qualification is desirable.
May require physical capacity to operate storage units and to manually handle collection material up to 6kg.
The successful applicant will be required to obtain and maintain a Baseline Vetting (Protected/Restricted) security clearance.

At DPS, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace that ensures all our people can contribute to our shared purpose. We encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people with disability, people with caring responsibilities, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, people from cultural and linguistically diverse backgrounds, people who identify as neurodivergent, and mature aged people.

Salary

Currently, the salary range for this position is $78,258 - $81,780 per annum.

Conditions of Employment

Employment opportunities at the department are subject to a range of conditions prescribed in the Parliamentary Service Act 1999 which include:

Australian citizenship: Section 22 of the Parliamentary Service Act 1999 requires that employees of the Parliamentary Service are generally required to be Australian citizens. However, if you are not an Australian citizen you may be considered for engagement on the condition that you are able to gain Australian Citizenship within a specified time. Failure to obtain citizenship within the timeframe could lead to termination of employment.
Loss and resumption of Australian citizenship: Under historical provisions of the Australian Citizenship Act 1948 (section 17), some Australian citizens automatically lost their citizenship if they voluntarily acquired the citizenship of another country between 26 January 1949 and 3 April 2002. This loss occurred by operation of law and may not have been known to the individual at the time. Although these provisions were repealed in 2002 to allow dual citizenship, the repeal did not restore citizenship that was previously lost. Individuals who believe they may be affected are recommended to seek advice about resuming their Australian citizenship. Further information, is available on the Department of Home Affairs website.
- Applicants who progress to the offer stage with our department who have been affected by the loss of citizenship as outlined above will be required to demonstrate within a reasonable time that they have resumed, or are actively undertaking the process to resume, Australian citizenship.
Security clearance and character clearance: the preferred applicant will be required to obtain and maintain a security clearance at the level specified, as well as complete and be deemed suitable through a Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check.
Health assessment: a pre-employment health assessment will be required where there are physical or medical requirements for the role.
External Work Approval: Employees must seek approval for any paid employment outside the department and declare voluntary activities that could impact their role.
