You may also have had exposure to prosecutions or criminal law, have worked in a commercial litigation practice, or have been a judge's associate and are seeking a role in which you can apply this experience to progress your career.

Why you should apply

At the CDPP, we are committed to a workplace that reflects the community we serve. We recognise how drawing on different experiences and opinions drives innovation, new ideas and a more collaborative workplace.

No matter where you work with us, you'll have access to:

  • unique and challenging work;

  • generous leave entitlements with additional paid time off during the Christmas close-down period;
  • clear and transparent salary progression, and scheduled salary increases;

  • a $295 annual wellbeing allowance; and
  • free and confidential 24/7 counselling through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP), available for staff and their family members.

In addition to the base salary and 15.4% superannuation, prosecutor roles with the CDPP attract a per annum allowance in line with the Determination Prosecutor Allowance.
