Closes: 19 June 2026

Position No: 35391, several
Directorate: Justice and Community Safety

Details: There are two openings for a Senior Policy Officer to join the Security Branch- a permanent position and a temporary filling through to 24 December 2026.

Are you passionate about policies that protect the security of government and national security? Do you enjoy communicating with others across all mediums and in person? Do you like to think creatively about new ways to achieve team priorities?

If you have a strong desire to perform meaningful work and undertake critical thinking, then this is the job for you!

The Security Branch leads policy development, reform, and implementation on security matters, including protective security, national security, counter-terrorism, countering violent extremism, and security of critical infrastructure.

The Senior Policy Officers works closely across the Branch to coordinate, develop and implement security initiatives across government. One role focuses on protective security aligned to the Commonwealth Protective Security Policy Framework, and the other role has a focus on national security.

The ability to communicate effectively, think critically and creatively, conduct research, analysis and planning is necessary in these roles. Well-developed organisation, time management and written skills, including the ability to prepare plans, reports, meeting papers and briefs are important assets for this role.

We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where people with diverse thoughts, lived experience, and perspectives can thrive and contribute their unique talents to the ACTPS and ACT community. We encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people with disability, people with culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, veterans, younger and older workers, and people with diverse genders, sexes and sexualities to apply.

Eligibility/Other requirements:

This position requires the occupant(s) to be an Australian citizen who can obtain and maintain an Australian Government NV1 security clearance, which will be sponsored by the Justice and Community Safety Directorate. If screening is not successful, your employment will not commence or, if already commenced, your employment will be reassessed.
Knowledge of ACT Government processes is highly desirable.

Note: There is one permanent position available and one temporary position available until 24 December 2026. Selection may be based on application and referee reports only. Current and former ADF members are encouraged to apply. A Merit Pool will be established from this selection process and will be used to fill vacancies over the next 12 months.

How to Apply: Please provide a two-page application addressing the Selection Criteria and the job specific criteria in the Position Description, and a current curriculum vitae with details of two referees, including a current supervisor.

Applications should be submitted .

Note: Under the ACTPS employment framework you may be placed in another role where required for the efficient administration of the service.
