The Opportunity
The Australian Passport Office (APO) is seeking a Director to lead the Learning and Development Section (PLS).


The APO issues passports to Australian citizens, both in Australia and overseas, under the Australian Passports Act 2005, related laws, and the Convention on International Civil Aviation.

We also issue other types of travel documents, for example, Convention Travel Documents, to eligible non-citizens living in Australia.

Within Australia, APO staff are also authorised to provide services such as the issuing of Certificates of no Impediment to Marriage (CNI) and legalisations of documents (Apostilles and Authentications).

This is a great opportunity for someone to lead a high performing team within a dynamic working environment.

The work is interesting, challenging and varied, as PLS provides learning programs to staff across the APO's national network and to staff undertaking passport functions at overseas Posts.

Travel to APO State and Territory Offices will be required.

Please review the applicant pack for further information.
