Perth, Western Australia Programmed Full time

Detailed information about the roles will be provided by the Western Australian Electoral Commission (WAEC) to PERSOLKELLY, our recruitment partner, prior to the State elections in 2025.

We are seeking Electoral Workers to assist with the State elections next year. The roles will involve working at polling places on either the day of the election or in the lead-up to the election.

The roles will require a high level of professionalism, with a focus on delivering excellent customer service and ensuring the smooth operation of the polling place. The successful candidates will be required to work in a fast-paced environment, with attention to detail and the ability to work independently and as part of a team.

The specific duties of the roles will include:

  • Issuing ballot papers to electors
  • Rotating as a ballot box guard and queue controller
  • Assisting with the count on polling day

Student Electoral Officers will be required to assist with polling place duties performed by Officers, with limited hours. Voter Information Officers will be engaged centrally through the Electoral Ambassador program and may be assigned to polling places with high concentrations of culturally and linguistically diverse (CaLD) or indigenous electors. General Assistants will be allocated to polling places and will assist with the setup of the polling place on the night before polling and with the count and pack up on polling day.

Ballot Box Guards will be responsible for ensuring the correct ballot box papers are put into the ballot boxes and will rotate as an Issuing Officer and Queue Controller. Queue Controllers will manage the queue into the polling place and direct electors as needed and will rotate as an Issuing Officer and Ballot Box Guard.

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from people of all backgrounds.

Please note that you will be contacted directly by the WAEC in the first instance if you are shortlisted for this role. PERSOLKELLY will complete your onboarding if your application is ultimately successful.
