Electorate Officer (Grade 1) - Casual
Paul Edbrooke, Member for Frankston (Labor)
About the Role
Electorate Officers play an important role in providing services to the Victorian community. Reporting to the Member of Parliament that nominates you, your work will require a high degree of trust and integrity. Confidentiality is also a key requirement when interacting with constituents and visitors to the office or in the community.
Based in the Member of Parliament's electorate office, you will interact daily with constituents, community organisations and other stakeholders. Key responsibilities may include:

- General administration and office management
- Constituent services
- Media and stakeholder engagement
- Parliamentary duties

Electorate Officer salaries are set out in the Electorate Officers (Victoria) Single Enterprise Agreement 2021.
The role is a casual position paid at $41.71 per hour (inclusive of 25% casual loading) and based out of 49-51 Beach Street, Frankston VIC 3199. About you
Key attributes of responsiveness, effectiveness and accountability are precisely the values and behaviours the successful applicant will need to succeed.

**The role of an Electorate Officer requires you to demonstrate**:

- Initiative and ability, particularly to perform a broad range of office support duties, often to tight deadlines and with limited supervision.
- Good written and oral communication skills with a proven ability to provide sound advice to staff and constituents.
- Sound computer skills with experience in MS suite of software and online communications.
- Commitment to provide the highest level of client service and maintain the strictest confidence on all issues.
- Ability to exercise sound judgement in assessing and directing enquiries from media and external stakeholders.
- Ability to work effectively in a team environment and respect the needs of others.
- Ability to evaluate work procedures, practices, and systems and to implement change.

For more information about the role, please see attached position description. Pre-Employment Screening requirements
As part of the selection process, you may be asked to complete an online competency or skills assessment. How to apply
While Members of Parliament are prohibited from determining that an Electorate Officer can or must perform work that is party specific, Members typically nominate Electorate Officer whose political beliefs are closely aligned with their own. Section 27 of the Equal Opportunity Act 2010 states that an employer may discriminate on the basis of political belief or activity in the offering of employment to an Electorate Officer.

The Department of Parliamentary Services supports all Members of Parliament in the recruitment and selection process of Electorate Officers. You will receive communications throughout the process from the Department.
