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 Victoria State Office is divided into two key areas; the Operations Delivery section who are responsible for overseeing and administrating the 39 Victorian electoral divisions, and the Project Support Unit that undertakes the governance and corporate support including financial and administrative services for the state.

For the delivery of a federal election or by-elections, staffing rapidly expands to help manage the increased workload around risk management, fast moving project work and logístical activities, media, and public scrutiny.

- Ability to undertake risk management and assessment preferably with experience in the delivery of medium to large scale operational and legislative environments.

At the APS level 5, you will be required to demonstrate the additional skills and abilities:
