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 AEC has a dispersed network of 151 electoral divisions, 50 of which are located across New South Wales and the ACT including State Office in the Sydney CBD and several single and multi-divisional office sites across the state.

There is currently a vacancy in Wollongong, to join a high-performing, collaborative team. The team is responsible for delivering several tasks critical to the delivery of federal events, including supporting staff in their work. This is a cohesive and high performing team that has a significant focus on effective communication with stakeholders.

The Opportunity

  • An ability to remain positive and respond to increased levels of pressure in a calm manner, while achieving goals within tight timeframes and responding to competing and changing priorities.
  • A demonstrated ability to maintain key internal and external relationships, including liaising with stakeholders on project or operational issues, and responding to stakeholder needs and expectations.
  • Exercise independent judgement and resolve workplace issues with a degree of guidance and monitoring from management.

Eligibility
