Only Australian Citizens are eligible to hold and maintain the NEGATIVE VETTING LEVEL 2 security clearance. Any applicants who are currently not an Australian Citizen must be aware that this is an essential requirement to fulfil this position (please refer to the attached position description). Whilst there is nothing to preclude applicants from applying for the position if they have not yet been granted Australian Citizenship, applicants who are successful should be aware that they cannot be appointed unless they are in the process of applying for Australian Citizenship and are eligible to become an Australian Citizen prior to appointment.

Applicants are required to submit a comprehensive Curriculum Vitae (CV) of no more than five (5) pages.

Throughout the selection and interview process the selection panel may require applicants to undertake further assessment to determine suitability.
At the first stage of the selection process, your suitability to progress will be assessed based on your responses to the above questions and the transferable skills outlined in your CV.
Each essential work-related requirement will be evaluated at least once throughout the process. The final suitable applicants will be determined based on ability to address the work-related requirements in a competitive manner, as well as transferable skills outlined in their resume.
