Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Australian Federal Police Full time $80,000 - $120,000 per year

Applications are sought from dynamic, motivated and experienced individuals wishing to be considered for positions as Litigation Lawyers in the Criminal Assets Confiscation Taskforce in Brisbane. Positions are available at the Band 3-5 levels. You must be admitted as an Australian legal practitioner and hold a practising certificate (or be eligible to obtain one) at the time of commencement.

The appropriate band level will be assessed for the successful candidates according to their post-qualification experience and skill set against the AFP work level standards. These roles work closely with investigation teams and provide a challenging opportunity for commercial or civil litigators who wish to broaden their horizons.

The AFP-led Criminal Assets Confiscation Taskforce adopts a coordinated and proactive approach to the confiscation of assets related to Commonwealth crime. It brings together expertise in investigations, litigation, intelligence, forensic accounting and other specialist resources and representatives from key partner agencies including the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC), Australian Border Force (ABF) and Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC). The main aim of the Taskforce is to enhance the identification of criminal assets and benefits derived from crime, and to pursue their confiscation.

Criminal Assets Litigation (CAL) is a key part of the Taskforce and teams of Litigation Lawyers are co-located with Taskforce investigators. CAL is responsible for conducting civil litigation on behalf of the Commissioner under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (Cth) and for international referrals under the Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters Act 1987 (Cth), as well as providing legal advice to the Taskforce and the Commissioner on proceeds of crime matters. The CAL team provides high quality, cost effective in-house professional litigation services to the Commissioner and litigation lawyers regularly appear for the Commissioner, and instruct counsel, in the District and Surpreme Courts of QLD and other States and Territories as required.

In this role you will also be required to contribute to the achievement of outcomes in accordance with the regulatory framework, the AFP Code of Conduct and the AFP Governance Instruments. It is expected that the successful applicant will deliver on the core responsibilities and meet any requirements of the position as outlined below.
