Details: We are looking for talented, capable and driven individual to lead the provision of policy and financial advice on the wide range of opportunities and challenges facing the ACT Government.

Central Agency experience, including building your understanding of how the Government’s strategic policy priorities are developed and implemented.
A sophisticated understanding of the machinery of government, the budget and Cabinet processes, and government decision-making and policy implementation.
Effective stakeholder management and negotiation skills.
Access to diverse career advancement pathways.

The communication, policy and financial management skills you will practice in the position, and more broadly FABG, are highly valued and readily transferrable to a range of future career opportunities across the public and private sectors.

This position has moved to a new workplace designed for activity-based working (ABW). Under ABW arrangements, officers will not have a designated workstation/desk.

The successful applicant must understand and work within the ACTPS Code of Conduct and ACTPS values of respect, integrity, collaboration and innovation, and modelling behaviour consistent with the ACTPS Respect Equity and Diversity Framework and supervise and mentor staff.

How to Apply: Interested candidates should include a supporting statement of no more than two pages outlining your relevant skills and experience and why you would be suitable for the role and provide your current curriculum vitae.

Please submit your application no later than 5pm Tuesday 21 July 2026.

Where an offer of employment is for a fixed-term period, any related temporary contracts within the Territory will be issued in compliance with the requirements and applicable exceptions outlined in the Fair Work Act.

The ACT public service is committed to closing the gap, underpinned by the belief that when Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have a genuine say in the design and delivery of policies, programs and services that affect them, better life outcomes are achieved. More information can be found here ACT Closing the Gap Implementation Plan - ACT Government Transparency Portal.
