**About the Department**:
The Department of Industry, Science and Resources and our broader portfolio are integral to the Australian Government’s economic agenda. Our purpose is to help the government build a better future for all Australians through enabling a productive, resilient and sustainable economy, enriched by science and technology. We do this by:

- Growing innovative & competitive businesses, industries and regions
- Investing in science and technology
- Strengthening the resources sector.

**About the National Measurement Institute **:The National Measurement Institute is the Australian Government’s national authority on measurement. We play an important role in the Australian economy by maintaining and regulating Australia’s measurement system, developing and maintaining national measurement standards, and delivering world-class measurement products and client services.

Measurement is integral to a successful economy and to the progress of innovation and science. Our work adapts to, services and enhances the productivity and growth of Australian industries, and aims to ensure a fair, safe, healthy and competitive Australia.

**About the Legal Metrology Branch **:The Legal Metrology Branch plays an important role in ensuring Australian consumers and industry can rely on trusted measurements for fair trade in goods and services. To ensure traders comply with the law and adopt correct measurement trading practices, we employ inspectors who check that measuring instruments (for example, weighing scales, fuel pumps and weighbridges) are accurate throughout Australia, pre-packaged articles contain the correct amount of produce, and that fuel sold in service stations complies with quality standards.

**About the section **:The Policy and Regulatory Services Section provides timely, accurate and appropriate support for the Secretary and Chief Metrologist, including advice and services relating to measurement policy, regulatory and technical matters. This enables the delivery of a strong and effective national measurement system that is trusted and accepted domestically and internationally and does not impose unnecessary barriers to trade through restrictive requirements.

- Ability to maintain confidentiality, exercise tact and discretion together with demonstrated commitment to professional values including teamwork, continuous improvement, and performing effectively under high workload conditions.
- Case management skills including research, analysis, judgement, problem solving, decision making, planning and organising.
- Demonstrated ability to engage with and resolve complex issues, think strategically and undertake analysis to inform policy development in new and existing areas.
- Excellent written and oral communication skills to support effective engagement and develop professional relationships with industry, community stakeholders and government stakeholders.

Experience operating in a regulatory and compliance environment is highly desirable.
