**Eligibility**: Open to Everyone

**Remuneration**: ASO6 - Salary Range ($98,478 - $104,165p.a.).

**About the opportunity**:
As the Risk and Compliance Officer, you’ll play a central role in helping Shared Services SA understand and manage risk in a dynamic, high-volume environment. You will lead the planning, delivery, and continuous improvement of risk, audit, and compliance activities - with a focus on embedding a strong culture of governance, accountability, and cyber-awareness.

This position offers the opportunity to work closely with internal stakeholders across all business units, supporting both strategic initiatives and operational improvements. Importantly, the role also includes a hands-on component: assisting with the day-to-day administration of risk and compliance processes, reporting, and documentation.

- The ability to analyse operational processes, identify risks, and translate findings into clear, actionable advice
- Experience preparing reports, risk registers, and compliance documentation
- Confidence engaging with stakeholders and providing training or guidance as needed
- A proactive mindset with a strong attention to detail
- Ideally, experience in government, financial services, or similarly complex environments

**About us**
- At the Department of Treasury and Finance we work together to ensure South Australia is a thriving, prosperous state now and into the future.
- We are the lead agency for economic, social, and financial policy outcomes. We play a vital role in providing financial services to the community and economic and fiscal policy advice to the Government of South Australia.
- Our culture is one that welcomes all and we embrace flexibility and embrace diversity. We believe people are our most valuable asset, so we work to support the skills, knowledge and capability of our staff.
- Shared Services SA is a division of the Department of Treasury and Finance. We provide essential corporate and transactional services across government - supporting agencies to deliver their services more efficiently through streamlined processes and strong risk management practices.

**What we offer**
- Flexible work options and supportive leadership
- Opportunities for development and growth
- A culture that values diversity, inclusion, and collaboration
- Make a real contribution to the safe and efficient delivery of government services to the people of South Australia
