Canberra, Australia Australian Electoral Commission Full time

**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**

The Fraud Investigations Unit / Defending Democracy Unit undertakes fraud control activities including governance, enterprise risks, awareness, reporting and investigations related to corporate fraud and fraud against the Commonwealth Electoral Act (the Act) 1918.

The Fraud Investigations Unit (FIU) manages the day-to-day matters relating to electoral integrity and the integrity of the electoral roll, including participating in section planning and aligning longer term plans with AEC goals and objectives. The overall aim of the FIU is to support the AEC in preventing, detecting and dealing with fraud.

**The Opportunity**

We are looking for an energetic and motivated person to join the FIU. As an Assistant Director, you will advance, manage and monitor the AEC’s fraud control and anti-corruption framework, including embedding the framework and working with business areas to improve integrity and reporting against the framework.

You will manage and support staff to ensure high quality outcomes; communicate and collaborate with business areas and external stakeholders to achieve results and facilitate cooperation and research electoral procedures and practices identifying evidence-based areas where electoral integrity can be improved.

You will have the opportunity to contribute to a potential referendum, which would be the first since 1999, and the 2024/2025 federal election. Applicants should be aware that the volume of requests, along with the urgency to resolve matters, will increase significantly around and during both electoral and referendum events.

The Defending Democracy Unit sits within the Electoral Integrity and Communications Branch. The overall aim of the team is to shape and support the AEC’s capability to counter and respond to threats to electoral integrity. The team plays a central role in upholding the integrity of elections by influencing advancements in Australia’s response to electoral interference.

The role will be filled in a non-ongoing basis until 30 June 2025.

To excel you’ll have:

- A Diploma of Government Investigations or equivalent qualification in accordance with the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 and the Commonwealth Fraud Control Framework.
- High-level investigation skills including the ability to identify likely breaches; gather, analyse and present evidence, experience in conducting interviews and preparing statements and affidavits.
- Proven ability to manage program related fraud and corruption investigations, including liaison with business area across the agency and the Australian Federal Police.
- Ability to deliver accurate, comprehensive, timely and value-add research and analysis to inform a variety of operational and strategic decisions relating to fraud control and the implementation of anti-corruption policies.
- Proven ability to make and communicate decisions using professional judgment, evaluating risks in the context of a complex and changing environment.

**Eligibility**
- AEC employees must be Australian citizens.
- Any person who is, and seen to be active in political affairs, and intends to publicly carry on this activity, may compromise the strict neutrality of the AEC and cannot be considered.
- Applicants are required to consent to, undergo, obtain and maintain a character clearance.
