**About the National Measurement Institute**:
The **National Measurement Institute **(NMI) is the Australian Government’s peak authority on measurement. We play an important role in the Australian economy by leading, maintaining, and regulating Australia’s measurement system. We deliver world-class measurement products, advice and client services and administer the regulatory framework for measurement.

Measurement is integral to a successful economy and to the progress of innovation and science. Our work adapts to, services, and enhances the productivity and growth of Australian industries, and aims to ensure a fair, safe, healthy, and competitive Australia.

We value the different skills, knowledge, and perspectives our employees bring. We are committed to giving everyone an equal opportunity to participate, contribute and progress. NMI’s values and behaviours centre on being adaptable, innovative, accountable, strategic, inclusive, and influential.

**About the branch**:
The **Legal Metrology Branch **(LMB) plays an important role in ensuring Australian consumers and industry can rely on trusted measurements for fair trade in goods and services. To ensure traders comply with the law and adopt correct measurement trading practices, we employ inspectors who check that measuring instruments (for example, weighing scales, fuel pumps and weighbridges) are accurate throughout Australia, pre-packaged articles contain the correct amount of produce, and that fuel sold in service stations complies with fuel quality standards.

**About the section**:
The Training & Technology Transfer (TTT) section provides measurement training in biological, chemical, physical and legal metrology. The team delivers high quality training to staff, industry and the Australian community with the aim of improving measurement skills.

Employees of NMI are expected to demonstrate behaviours consistent with our values of being adaptable, innovative, accountable, strategic, inclusive, and influential.
