The Library is seeking an experienced and motivated professional for an **EL 1 Assistant Director, Financial Accounting**role.
This is a non-ongoing opportunity from 17 July 2025 until 12 February 2025, with the potential to extend up to 12 months.

**The Opportunity**
This role is available to ongoing National Library of Australia and APS employees as a temporary transfer at level and/or a temporary performance (acting) opportunity from 17 July 2025 to 12 February 2025, with the possibility of extension to 12 months.
