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 Voter Compliance team sits within the Regulatory Law section of the AEC’s Legal Services Branch and is responsible for the national coordination of the multiple marks and non-voter post-election processes.

The team provides support and guidance to a geographically dispersed network of staff undertaking multiple and non-voter processing, provides analysis, judgement and advice on multiple voting and non-voting issues, coordinates referrals for further investigation or prosecution action, and makes significant contributions to the management, preparation and coordination of briefs for AEC Legal Services, the Australian Federal Police and Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions.

The Legal Services Branch is headed by the Chief Legal Officer and is divided into three sections: Corporate Law, Electoral Law and Regulatory Law.

The Opportunity

We are looking for an energetic and motivated Senior Project Officer to join the Voter Compliance team within the Regulatory Law section. The successful candidate will have exceptional communication skills in order to develop and maintain key internal and external relationships, and will collaborate with key stakeholders to identify opportunities, achieve outcomes and facilitate cooperation.

The Senior Project Officer is responsible for ensuring the agency meets its legislative obligations under the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 and the Referendum (Machinery Provisions) Act 1984, particularly in relation to multiple voter and non-voter processing.

This role involves managing priorities, monitoring progress, conducting quality assurance activities, and ensuring quality outcomes on project deliverables. Additionally, the officer develops and supports key internal and external relationships, providing high-quality and timely advice and reporting on team functional responsibilities. They make and communicate decisions using sound judgment, expertise, and knowledge in accordance with legislation, regulations, best practice principles, or relevant operating procedures and instructions. Furthermore, the officer contributes to doctrine, election preparation, and delivery activities in line with the election readiness framework, according to their individual accountabilities and responsibilities.

To excel you’ll have:

Ability to remain positive and respond to pressure in a calm manner, while committing energy and drive to see that goals are achieved.
Confidence and ability to effectively communicate, collaborate and negotiate with team members, business areas and external stakeholders at all levels of seniority.
Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and a strong commitment to working harmoniously within a team to achieve positive results and support the AEC’s strategic direction.
High standard of attention to detail and effective oral and written communication skills.
Demonstrated ability to take initiative, meet immutable deadlines, and achieve results.
Proven ability to manage and coordinate projects ensuring high quality outputs.

Please note, legal qualifications are not a requirement for this role.

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.
