**The Organisation**
The Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) protects Australia and Australians from threats to their security. In a complex, challenging and changing security environment, our success is built on the imagination and intelligence of our team. ASIO's people are ordinary Australians but they do extraordinary things - they are our most important asset. To be successful in our mission, we need talented people who are highly capable, dedicated, adaptable and resilient.
**The opportunity**
The TOP SECRET-Privileged Access (TS-PA) security clearance is Australia's highest-level of security clearance and is managed by the Vetting Authority within ASIO. Over the next few years, ASIO will integrate existing Positive Vetting (PV) security clearance function from across the Australian Government and assume responsibility for the management of existing PV security clearances as they gradually transition to the Vetting Authority.
ASIO is seeking to fill various positions at the AE5 and AE6 (APS5 and APS6 equivalent) level to support the Vetting Authority's critical mission and growth. In a challenging and dynamic work environment, you will be part of a professional and committed team responsible for assessing an individual's suitability to hold, or maintain, a security clearance that permits access to national security classified material. You will use your highly developed attention to detail, discretion and organisational skills to meet the diverse challenge of working in a national security environment.
A merit pool may be created to fill future vacancies which have the same or similar requirements to this position. This merit pool will be valid for up to 18 months.
**Role responsibilities**
As an AE5 Vetting Assessor, you will:
- Work with your team to assess whether clearance applicants are suitable to hold a TOP SECRET-Privileged Access security clearance.
- Conduct checks and perform administrative functions for vetting assessments.
- Conduct research and review existing holdings.
- Engage with clearance applicants and external stakeholders to fill gaps in information.
- Manage your own allocation of vetting assessments.
- Conduct analysis, write assessments and provide advice that identifies areas for further resolution in the vetting process.
As an AE6 Vetting Analyst, you will:
- Gather and analyse security relevant information.
- Conduct interviews, develop assessments and make recommendations about an individual's suitability to hold a TOP SECRET-Privileged Access security clearance in accordance with risk management principals.
- Assess an individual's suitability to hold or maintain security clearances that permit access to national security classified material.
- Travel in order to conduct vetting assessments as required.
**What you will bring**
- Highly developed research and analysis skills.
- An understanding of the customs, practices, cultures and beliefs of others.
- Excellent interpersonal skills and strong communication skills.
- The ability to work independently and as part of a team.
- The ability to form strong working relationships with a range of stakeholders.
**What we offer you**
ASIO provides a number of benefits to its staff including:
- A competitive salary, including a 7.5 per cent allowance for maintaining a TOP SECRET-Privileged Access security clearance.
- Employer superannuation contributions of 15.4 per cent.
- A variety of leave options, in addition to the standard 4 weeks annual leave to ensure your work-life balance.
- Flexible working arrangements to assist you to maintain your work-life balance (please note: due to our unique working environment, work from home options are generally not available).
- Study assistance, including financial support and study leave for tertiary education.
- Access to 7 staff-led diversity and inclusion networks.
- Mentoring opportunities.
- Access to an Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
**Eligibility**
To be eligible for the role, you must be:
- An Australian citizen.
- Assessed as suitable to hold and maintain a TOP SECRET-Privileged Access security clearance.
**Reasonable adjustments**
Please advise us if you require any additional assistance in order to fully participate in the recruitment process or the workplace.
We will seek to provide any reasonable adjustments within the recruitment and vetting process where possible and when required. We encourage you to contact ASIO Recruitment to discuss any specific adjustments to the process you may need.
