- Position available in Sydney

We are currently seeking Fair Work Advisers in our Sydney office at the Office of the Fair Work Ombudsman (OFWO). Part-time and full-time hours available. You will be required to work in one of the advertised office locations during initial training and may also work from home when not operationally required to attend the office.

**About Us**

Our role is to promote harmonious, productive, cooperative, and compliant workplace relations in Australia. We do this by providing education, assistance, advice and guidance to employers and employees. In 2022-23 we recovered $509 million in wages for more than a quarter of a million workers.

**What We Offer**

Great training and ongoing support
- We provide in depth and extensive training that is highly sought after within OFWO and in the private sector.
- Each Adviser will have a coach who will work closely with them to develop their skills.

Healthy work-life balance
- Various flexible working options, such as working from home
- 4 weeks annual leave, plus an additional close-down between Christmas and New Year
- 18 days of paid personal leave a year

Other great benefits
- A competitive salary, with annual wage increases built into our Enterprise Agreement, plus 15.4% superannuation
- Salary packaging options
- Access to a free counselling service for you and your family
- 88% of our Customer Service staff in 2023 were satisfied with their non-monetary employment conditions (e.g. leave, flexible work arrangements, other benefits).

**The Team**

The Fair Work Infoline plays a critical role within the agency by answering enquiries from the public regarding workplace issues. We provide tailored advice and information to both employers and employees. We empower our customers by:

- Promoting and helping customers navigate our online self-help resources

Working as a Fair Work Adviser you will be on the phone in a fast-paced contact centre environment advising and assisting the Australian public every day. You will be helping a diverse range of employees and employers to understand workplace rights, entitlements, and responsibilities. What is most important to succeed in this role is a desire to help people, good communication skills and willingness to learn.

**The Career**

Through our comprehensive training and coaching program, you will gain skills in researching and interpreting legislation, and be able to advance your communications skills. This will enable you to progress your career, not only within the Fair Work Infoline as a Coach or Team Leader, but across the OFWO. For example, past Advisers have become Fair Work Inspectors, Communications officers, or joined the Data teams.
