The Insurance Branch is seeking applicants who are interested in delivering good policy outcomes to support Canberrans, particularly through their rehabilitation and injury journey after being involved in a motor vehicle or work accident.

The Insurance Branch in the Chief Minister, Treasury and Economic Development Directorate is responsible for the Motor Accident Injuries (MAI) Scheme and the Lifetime Care and Support (LTCS) Scheme. The Branch supports the MAI Commissioner in regulating the MAI Scheme. It also supports the LTCS Commissioner in providing treatment and care services to LTCS scheme participants in conjunction with our service delivery partner. We also provide a wide range of policy advice to government, including on cutting-edge insurance issues such as Autonomous Vehicles; peer-to-peer carsharing; and road safety initiatives.
