Position SummaryThe Australian Border Force (ABF) Leading Marine Tactical Officer (LMTO) is a specialist role with skills that enable response to known or suspected breaches in Australia's territories and exclusive economic zones. They are professional law enforcement officers and are to ensure the success and safety of their team and the vessel enforcement operations they undertake.
When not conducting or training for enforcement activities, LMTOs assist the APS5 Senior Border Force Officer (SBFO) on board (including Operations Officer, and Team leader) in conducting various responsibilities that contribute to the safe and efficient operation of the vessel, including leading, instructing, motivating, briefing, mentoring and supervising crew in the performance of their duties. These tasks may continue during rostered days off when required.
The LMTO is responsible for leading and managing a specialised small team in performing a number of operational functions and is a key enabler in ABF Cutters executing their assigned mission in conducting boarding operations. The LMTO is expected to be highly proficient in all Marine Tactical Officer (MTO) duties.
There may be a range of other tasks and duties they are responsible for delegated by the APS5 SBFO on board.
Our Ideal CandidateMarine Deployments and Support Branch are seeking applications from professionals who can respond positively to a challenging and high-pressure environment.

Depending on operational requirements and the circumstances of candidates, the Marine Unit permits domiciling in Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Darwin and Thursday Island. (Thursday Island - Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Officers Only).
