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

As a member of the Australian Electoral Commission’s (AEC’s) Indigenous Electoral Participation Program, you will have a unique opportunity to work collaboratively with colleagues to lead and influence initiatives that identify and address barriers to First Nations electoral participation.

Our team works in partnership with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to improve access to electoral services and strengthen participation in Australia’s democratic processes. Through your knowledge, expertise and leadership, you will help the AEC deliver more accessible, inclusive and culturally responsive electoral services.

You will use evidence, insights and best practice to develop and maintain key resources, support legislative and policy development, and contribute to the AEC’s commitment to continuous improvement. As a member of the Branch Leadership Team, you will help shape strategic priorities, foster a proactive and curious culture, and champion service design and human-centred approaches that improve outcomes for the communities we serve.

The Opportunity

This is an Affirmative Measures position designated for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Accordingly, this vacancy is open only to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander applicants.

In this role, you will lead strategic initiatives for the Indigenous Electoral Participation Program, including driving the AEC’s alignment with the National Agreement on Closing the Gap and its Priority Reforms. You will analyse data and insights to inform strategic decision-making and reporting, while leading and supporting a geographically dispersed team.

You will build and maintain effective relationships with a broad range of stakeholders, represent the agency in a variety of forums, and communicate the AEC’s position on complex issues. The role requires occasional travel, including to regional and remote locations.

To excel you’ll have:

Demonstrated understanding of issues affecting Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities.

Experience managing competing priorities and delivering quality outcomes within tight timeframes.
Proven ability to communicate with influence, negotiate outcomes and manage complex stakeholder relationships to achieve strategic outcomes, including across geographically dispersed networks.
Demonstrated ability to lead and manage staff through change while fostering a positive team culture, developing capability and supporting professional growth.

Desirable

Relevant qualifications in Indigenous Studies, Community Engagement, Education, Public Policy or a related discipline.
Knowledge of, or the ability to quickly acquire knowledge of, relevant legislation, government programs and public policy frameworks.

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.
