About the Role

Electorate Officers play a vital 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. Your key responsibilities may include:

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

Under Section 30 of the Parliamentary Administration Act 2005, Electorate Officers must not perform any party-specific activities. Party-specific activity means any activity for the dominant purpose of directing how a person should vote at an election, by promoting or opposing the election of any candidate at the election; or a registered political party; or an elected member.

About You

The successful applicant will need to demonstrate:

  • High level organisational ability, particularly in determining priorities and work practices, and both supervising and performing a broad range of office support duties, often to tight and demanding deadlines.
  • High level written and oral communication skills, with demonstrated ability to undertake complex research, investigations and draft reports, submissions, and complex correspondence.
  • High level commitment and ability to provide the highest level of client service in a challenging environment, providing sound advice and maintaining the strictest confidence on all issues.
  • High level of understanding and ability to provide advice and guidance on government and parliamentary processes.
  • In-depth knowledge of traditional and social media landscape and strong relationships with journalists and media outlets; ability to anticipate impact of a rapidly changing external policy and political environment and provide strategic advice.
  • High level stakeholder engagement skills and proven ability to collaborate with a diverse range of stakeholders from government and peak organisations to local community organisations and constituents.
  • Experience in leading and supervising a team, demonstrating sound coaching and mentoring skills and respect for the needs of others.
  • Behaviours consistent with Electorate Officer values and Code of Conduct, including the ability to display high levels of responsiveness, integrity, impartiality, accountability, and respect in relationships with others and decision making.
Salary and Job Type

Electorate Officer salaries are set out in the Electorate Officers (Victoria) Single Enterprise Agreement 2021. This role is ongoing, full-time. A six-month probationary period will apply.

Pre-Employment Screening Requirements All appointments are subject to receipt of a satisfactory National Name (Police) Check and Working with Children Check. Successful candidates who do not currently hold a Working with Children Check will be required to obtain a check within 3 months of commencement of employment.

As part of the selection process, you may be asked to complete an online competency or skills assessment.
