About the job
Vacancy information

Position title: Examiner of Trade Marks - Affirmative Measures (Indigenous)_EXT

Job Requisition ID: 1483

Location: Flexible location

Tenure: Ongoing

Our Opportunity

With full training provided, Trade Mark Examiners assess trade mark applications to determine if they meet the requirements for registration under the Trade Marks Act 1995.

Trade Mark Examiners conduct research using online resources, analyse and interpret information, and apply legal tests and principles to assess whether a trade mark is registrable. Examination research tools are primarily electronic and include internal and external databases and procedural manuals. Trade Mark Examiners are required to apply and interpret the relevant legislation and court decisions.

As an Examiner, you will liaise closely with customers (including businesses and individuals), IP professionals, and the general public, to ensure the delivery of robust intellectual property rights. Examiners must also have exceptional time management skills, high levels of digital literacy, as well as clear, concise and logical written and oral communication skills.

Job specific capabilities

A good Trade Mark Examiner is curious to learn more about different subjects and can communicate and apply legal concepts fairly and consistently.

Trade Mark Examiners commence as an APS Level 4 but progress quickly through the training program to an APS Level 5. You can find a detailed description of what is expected at these classifications in IP Australia's capability framework.

In our Examiners we look for people who:

  • display sound judgement and capacity to make decisions
  • can communicate information simply, clearly, and effectively in different mediums (including interpersonal communication with others)
  • can effectively organise work and display a focus on the details
  • are adaptable and flexible in changing circumstances
  • respond proactively to feedback and be willing to develop and apply new skills
  • gain a clear understanding by listening, asking clarifying questions and reflecting; checking to ensure their own views are understood
  • demonstrate a high degree of capability using data systems, technology and tools available.

We value a degree in any discipline, but this is not essential.
