- Melbourne, other State & Territory capital city office locations considered

Data is at the core of everything we do at the Bureau, as we collect millions of observations from our networks and external sources and convert these into essential weather, climate, water and ocean services.

To ensure the Bureau maintains the highest level of data assurance, the Bureau is recruiting a Chief Statistician in a newly defined role in the Science and Innovation Group (SIG). The Chief Statistician will augment the Bureau's statistical credentials and capability by developing, applying, communicating and advising on state-of-the-art, fit for purpose statistical methods for use in product and service offerings across weather to climate timescales. The Chief statistician will have the responsibility to endorse statistical approaches developed and used across SIG and more generally across the Bureau.

The Chief Statistician will report to the General Manager of the Research Program and will advise the SIG leadership and other members of the Bureau Senior Leadership Team, including the Executive and the Chief Data Officer.
