Canberra, Australia Australian Electoral Commission Full time

**Agency Purpose**

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 Redistributions Secretariat is responsible for ensuring redistributions of federal electoral divisions meet the requirements of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 (Electoral Act) while also being conducted in a manner easily understandable to members of the public.

The Redistributions Secretariat works closely with redistribution-specific secretariats, which may be based in a state or territory undergoing redistribution, to support the three-person Electoral Commission, Electoral Commissioner, Redistribution Committees, and augmented Electoral Commissions to deliver redistributions of federal electoral divisions in a given state or territory. This also requires working closely with all areas of the AEC and several external suppliers.

Team members will be required to travel interstate at several points during a federal redistribution. In some instances, this will include travel over weekends or outside bandwidth hours. Some weekend work and work outside bandwidth hours will be required during a redistribution process.

Members of the Redistributions Secretariat may be based at AEC offices outside of Canberra. Redistributions Secretariat members based outside of Canberra will be expected to periodically travel to Canberra and to other states/territories undergoing redistribution.

**The Opportunity**

We are looking for agile, energetic, self-motivated and results-driven staff to assist with ensuring there are a similar number of electors in each federal electoral division for a given state or territory. To do this, you’ll provide advice to the decision-makers on the operations of the relevant provisions of the Electoral Act and assist interested individuals and organisations participate in the redistribution process.

You’ll be involved in a variety of tasks, from analysing population and enrolment data to identify when a redistribution is triggered to assisting with the implementation of new electoral division names and boundaries into AEC systems and ensuring that affected electors are informed of these changes.

Every redistribution of electoral divisions is different. You’ll have the opportunity to consider how each aspect of a redistribution has worked and how it can be improved for the future. There may also be the opportunity to work on federal electoral events.

As a member of the Redistribution Secretariat, you’ll assist the National Redistributions Manager in the day-to-day management of redistributions of federal electoral divisions, provide support and advice for federal redistributions of specific states or territories and across the course of a redistribution will be involved in the following: legislative interpretation, research and data analysis, provision of secretariat services, liaison with internal and external stakeholders, policy development, evaluation, procurement, report writing, and development of alternative boundaries using geospatial software.

To excel you’ll have:

- An ability to remain positive and respond to pressure in a calm manner, while committing energy and drive to see that goals are achieved, including under tight timeframes and/or in high-pressure situations.
- Ability to develop the skills to effectively communicate, collaborate and negotiate with team members and, with supervision, business areas and stakeholders at all levels of seniority.
- A demonstrated ability to work under limited supervision and/or autonomously and a strong commitment to working harmoniously within a team, including a geographically dispersed team, to achieve positive results and support the AEC’s strategic direction.
- Attention to detail and able to develop the skills to proof-read written documents and maps.
- Ability to quickly gain knowledge of Australian electoral law and practice, in particular relating to redistributions of federal electoral divisions.
- Ability to quickly gain knowledge of commercial mapping software.
- Ability to quickly learn and develop skills to harness large volumes of new information and adhere to established processes and procedures.

**Eligibility**

- Any person who is, and seen to be active in political affairs, and intends to publicly carry on this activity, may compromise the strict neutrality of the AEC and cannot be considered.
- Applicants are required to consent to, unde
