As an Assessment Officer in the Public Interest Disclosure team, reporting to the Manager, Reporting and Assessments, working in the Investigations and Public Interest Disclosures Branch, means no two days will be the same.

The PID Act provides a framework for the disclosure and investigation of serious wrongdoing in the Commonwealth public sector offering a statutory reporting mechanism for current and former Defence officials (APS, ADF, and contractors).

Authorised Officer Assessments conducted by the Directorate are in line with the PID Act and Commonwealth Ombudsman guidelines.

We are looking for motivated and experienced professionals who have a proven ability to work independently to achieve strong performance outcomes in an integrity context.

To be successful in this role, you will be highly driven and demonstrate the following qualities and abilities:

- Accountability: You will be accountable for organising your workflow, managing allocated resources, setting work area priorities, and developing strategies and evaluating business outcomes;
- Research, Analysis, and Risk Management: You will be adept in researching and analysing information, probing for clarity, producing solutions, making judgments, and thinking systematically, including identifying and addressing issues raised through PID disclosures;
- Communication and Relationship Management: You will be an excellent communicator, with the ability to leverage interpersonal skills to build and sustain productive relationships with team members and actively participate in teamwork and group activities; and
- Commitment to Integrity: As an investigator within the Defence Integrity Division, you will exemplify and promote integrity and commitment to Defence Integrity and APS Code of Conduct standards.
- Committed to building overall team capability and driving continuous improvement.
