Brisbane, Australia Australian Electoral Commission Full time

**[Note: Temporary Opportunities for Commonwealth Employees Only]**

**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**

You will be one of a network of Assistant Team Leaders across the country, responsible for managing your work unit to ensure the proper conduct of our federal elections and referendums. You will work closely with our State Office, National Office and the other States and Territories.

The APS 5 Assistant Team Leader supports the Team Leader in the leadership and management of staff within their designated office and delivering a public facing service as required. The Assistant Team Leader may also likely undertake the legislative responsibilities of the Divisional Returning Officer for a federal electoral division and will work to ensure that the division delivers an election result with transparency and integrity.

At the AEC you will develop strong connections with colleagues and supportive networks, as we all work to deliver an impartial and independent electoral system with high integrity

**The Opportunities**

We are looking for agile, energetic, self-motivated and results-driven people to lead and manage divisional election and referendum planning, delivery and evaluation. Ideally, you are a self-starter able to work under pressure, and independently under limited guidance but in accordance with strict processes, and comfortable working in a team environment.

During the preparation phase of the electoral cycle, you will be responsible for ensuring accuracy and completeness of the electoral roll for a geographical area. Maintaining the electoral roll allows electors to exercise their franchise at federal, state and local government elections. Whilst doing this you will also be leading your team in making preparations towards the next federal electoral event.

Once we move to the mobilisation phase of the electoral cycle, these critical roles run the federal election, which is the largest peace time activity in Australia, mobilising over 100,000 staff.

You will contribute to the development of team objectives for short term tasks and strategic planning for longer-term initiatives, including setting priorities for the work area, maintaining team cohesion, and ensuring quality of outputs for the work area. A key component of this role is being able to manage multiple priorities at the same time.

You will be responsible for the overall supervision of our temporary election staff, using your leadership skills to seamlessly and efficiently support the expanding workforce requirements.

You will join a leadership team committed to learning and self-development and responsible for building technical capability and fostering career development of its people.

The standard working week is 37.5 hours, however you will be required to work extended hours and manage key election projects with fixed deadlines during an election period, including multiple weekends and evenings.

We are also seeking interest from individuals looking for an opportunity to work with the AEC in the future as positions become available across Queensland.

To excel you will have demonstrated ability to:

- Work with others - building team spirit, listening and communicating proactively, and recognising the contribution of others.
- Lead and supervise - delegating effectively, providing clear direction, motivating and empowering others and setting appropriate standards of behaviour.
- Follow instructions and procedures - keeping to schedules and deadlines, following set procedures and policies and complying with obligations and requirements of the role.
- Cope with pressures and setbacks - remaining positive and calm and working productively in a high-pressure environment.
- Adhere to principles and values - always demonstrating integrity and upholding ethics and values.

Desirable skills and experience include:

- Experience in planning and organising major logístical events - managing time effectively and identifying and organising resources to achieve results.
- Ability to adapt and responding to changing circumstances, dealing with ambiguity and making positive use of opportunities it presents.
- Ability to consistently deliver results and achieve project goals, working in a systematic, methodical and orderly way while monitoring and maintaining high standards for quality.
- A demonstrated ability to work autonomously and a strong commitment to wo
