Canberra, Australia ACT Government Full time

**Expression of Interest**

We have two exciting opportunities in the Fair Trading and Compliance Branch.

We are seeking an enthusiastic and self-motivated Assistant Director with the ability to lead and deliver agreed business outcomes in pursuing vigorous and effective law enforcement to protect the interests and safety of consumers, and to support fair trading across the ACT.

We are also seeking an enthusiastic and self-motivated Assistant Director with the ability to manage the day-to-day operations of the Compliance team in line with Access Canberra’s Accountability Commitment and legislative priorities.

The Investigations team adopts a strategic, risk-based, and proportionate approach to promote compliance with fair trading legislation. It works in close coordination with other areas within Access Canberra and across the ACT Government to achieve our common purpose of maintaining a safe and liveable city.

The Compliance team is responsible for providing information to businesses and consumers to ensure they are informed and confident when trading or making purchases. The team minimises harm to individuals or the community through the conduct of proactive compliance programs, responding to complaints or enquiries from members of the public and/or regulated industries and through the conduct of investigations. Legislative schemes within the Compliance regulatory remit include liquor, security, fair trading, gaming and racing, working with vulnerable people, and agents.

These roles will provide interesting and fulfilling work in a unique government environment where you can see the impact you have on the Canberra community. You will have the opportunity to work with passionate, innovative, and experienced leaders who encourage and support you to develop your interests and expertise.
