**Our Department Values**

Our values set the direction for what it means to work in our department. They inform the standard and expectations of behaviours, skills and capabilities and the attributes we currently have, will continually work to achieve and develop, and that we use to acknowledge and attract, retain and recruit into our department.

**A little bit about us**

We steward the domestic aviation sector by regulating airports, investing strategically in aviation services, and advising government on policy to serve Australia’s interests.

The **Domestic Aviation and Reform Division’s** work includes domestic and regional aviation elements, and involves working closely with airport operators, airlines and other aviation stakeholders. The functions span a wide range of topics including economic regulation, airport planning and development, program delivery, environmental management, environmental investigation and providing advice to government on domestic aviation policy issues, including competition, skills and workforce matters.

Working closely with other government agencies, the **Domestic Policy and Programs Branch** provides robust, innovative and evidence-based policy advice to government on domestic aviation policy matters, and administers a wide range of aviation programs such as the Regional Aviation Access Program and the Women in Aviation Industry Initiative. The Branch is also responsible for the Australian Jet Zero Council, progressing a reform agenda to modernise the Sydney Airport Demand Management Scheme, as well as providing business services for the broader aviation divisions.

The **Domestic Aviation Economic Policy Section** is a newly established section, in recognition of the current government focus on the economic regulation of aviation, in particular to provide advice on supporting competitive outcomes and improved services to consumers. It provides government policy and regulatory advice on matters relating to: the demand management arrangements at Sydney (Kingsford Smith) Airport (“slots”); competition policy issues, consumer policy issues; productivity and on economic policy issues affecting the Australian aviation industry. Close liaison with the Treasury, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, the Productivity Commission and other economic policy and regulatory bodies is required.

The team works closely on a day to day basis with the Bureau of Infrastructure and Transport Research Economics, the Sydney Airport Slot Manager and with key aviation stakeholders including airports, airlines and other government agencies.

You will develop or hone your skills in collaboration across a diverse and complex portfolio, as well as across government on aviation economic policy issues.

Through delivery of upcoming reforms to the Sydney Airport demand management framework you will have the opportunity to make positive changes that could deliver economic and social benefits across the aviation sector.
