    • design and development of high quality solutions in support of business and technical requirements
    • implementing Standard Operating Procedures in support of policy and processes
    • implementing solutions that underpin ICT infrastructure and cyber services
    • implementing and supporting ICT infrastructure and cyber support processes.

    What you'll get  

    We offer:  

    • a competitive salary, ranging between $63,760 - $71,063 depending on your qualification level
    • employer superannuation contributions of 15.4%
    • progression to an APS5 classification at successful completion of the program
    • a variety of leave options, including 4 weeks of annual leave
    • flexible working arrangements to assist you to maintain your work-life balance
    • a range of development opportunities to shape your career in the Australian Public Service.

     Why you should work for us  

    We make government services simple so people can get on with their lives.   

    Every hour of every day in Australia, people in need turn to the Australian Government for help. In those moments, our agency responds.  

    Our work spans social security and healthcare, in addition to disaster relief, assistance to farmers and specialised services for vulnerable communities.   

    We’ve touched the lives of every Australian in recent years, supporting the community through the pandemic and multiple natural disasters.  

    We're an agency that helps people and we're committed to progress, constantly moving forward to deliver services that are simple, helpful, respectful and transparent.   

    Eligibility  

     To be eligible for the role, you must:  

    • be an Australian citizen on 17 April 2023
    • have completed or due to complete an undergraduate or postgraduate degree, recognised in Australia, within 5 years prior to program commencement.

    Inclusivity  

    We're committed to providing a work environment that values inclusion and diversity and supports all staff to reach their full potential. We have a range of workplace diversity and inclusion strategies, policies and initiatives in place to achieve this.  

    We’re a Gold Status Employer, as recognised by the Australian Workplace Equality Index for our LGBTI+ workplace inclusion. The Diversity Council Australia (DCA) has awarded the agency inclusive employer status for the last 2 years.   

    Our program includes an Affirmative Measure to help employ Indigenous Australians. You can apply to our program using this measure, through the Australian Public Service Commission's Indigenous Graduate Pathway.
