About our Graduate Program

Launch your public sector career with purpose — where you will be given opportunities to foster professional growth and development and gain valuable exposure to state-wide projects and initiatives to help improve the lives of Western Australians.

You get the chance to rotate through our diverse business areas, as well as other WA public sector agencies. Your customised rotational plan is designed to maximise your learning, development, and professional connections.

In partnership with the Department of Mines, Petroleum and Exploration (DMPE) and the Department of Energy and Economic Diversification (DEED), you will benefit from prioritised rotations across both agencies, including shared networking and learning and development opportunities.

We also collaborate with the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation (DWER) to facilitate rotations that give diverse regulatory experience.

Hear from a past graduate as they share their experience participating in the Graduate Program and how the public sector is a place of opportunity.

If you're a highly motivated and ambitious graduate eager to embark on an exciting journey within the public sector, we encourage you to apply and be a part of our program that empowers you to lead, grow, and make a difference.

As a Graduate, you will receive:

  • Permanent appointment, with a 6-month probation period.
  • A structured 18-month program with rotational opportunities through our diverse business areas, as well as other WA public sector agencies.
  • The opportunity to work independently and collaboratively on impactful projects.
  • Extensive learning and development opportunities.
  • A comprehensive support network, including graduate manager and mentor, your graduate cohort and a dedicated graduate coordinator.
  • An attractive salary, annual increments, flexible work arrangements and work within a metropolitan location.
  • Access to health and wellbeing initiatives and the Employee Assistance Program.
