Help us deliver democracy!

The NSW Electoral Commission is looking for Election Managers to deliver the 2027 NSW State election for 93 electoral districts across metropolitan, regional and remote areas across NSW.

About us

The New South Wales Electoral Commission delivers trusted and independent systems, processes, oversight and engagement that support democracy in New South Wales.

Our vision is to maintain confidence in the integrity of the democratic process and make it easy for people to understand and participate.

Our work includes:

Running and regulating elections,

Effectively manage your own workload and lead a team in a fast-paced, high-pressure, deadline-driven environment, adapting to changing priorities across the election lifecycle.

Recruit, lead and motivate a large temporary workforce across multiple locations to deliver consistent election services.

Build and maintain strong relationships with a diverse range of stakeholders, including candidates, scrutineers, media and the public, supporting the delivery of the election.

Oversee a broad range of operational and administrative functions, including the secure handling, distribution and collection of election materials, systems and resource allocation.

Ensure all election activities are delivered on time and in accordance with legislative requirements and NSW Electoral Commission policies.

Act with integrity, impartiality and transparency in the conduct of the election.

Other information

Your employment will be subject to a National Criminal Records Check to determine your suitability for employment.

The NSW Electoral Commission is committed to maintaining public confidence in the integrity of the electoral system. The Commission requires all its employees to refrain from membership of any political party and from engaging in political activity which could be seen as reflecting adversely on the strict political neutrality of the Commission.

To maintain political neutrality, applicants for roles with the Commission who are, who have been or who may be perceived to be or have been connected with political activities may also be ineligible for appointment and should disclose such information as part of their application. This does not include voting in a Commonwealth, State or Local Government election, which is compulsory in NSW.

The Commission’s Political Neutrality Policy may be viewed on its website.

A talent pool will be created from this recruitment action for ongoing and temporary roles of the same work classification that may become available for filling.

Applications Close: Sunday 19 July 2026 @ 11.59pm
