We are looking for a motivated finance professional who wants to play a pivotal role in shaping the strategic direction of budget management across this large central agency in ACT Government. If you thrive on understanding cost drivers that impact business performance, delivering quality financial advice and guidance to support decision makers and working collaboratively with stakeholders to negotiate budget outcomes, this could be the opportunity you have been waiting for.
The ACT Public Service supports workforce diversity and is committed to creating an inclusive workplace. As part of this commitment, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, people with disability, culturally diverse people and those who identify as LGBTIQ are encouraged to apply.
Tertiary qualification in an accounting/finance discipline and CA ANZ or CPA Australia membership is highly desirable.
This is a temporary position available immediately to 30 June 2027 with the possibility of permanency. A Merit Pool will be established from this selection process and will be used to fill vacancies over the next 12 months. This position will be moving to a new workplace designed for activity-based working (ABW). Under ABW arrangements, officers will not have a designated workstation/desk. Selection may be based on application and referee reports only. Current and former ADF members are encouraged to apply.
Under the ACTPS employment framework you may be placed in another role where required for the efficient administration of the service.
Where an offer of employment is for a fixed-term period, any related temporary contracts within the Territory will be issued in compliance with the requirements and applicable exceptions outlined in the Fair Work Act.
The ACT public service is committed to closing the gap, underpinned by the belief that when Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have a genuine say in the design and delivery of the policies, programs and services that affect them, better life outcomes are achieved. More information can be found here ACT Closing the Gap Implementation Plan - ACT Government Transparency Portal.
This is a temporary position available immediately to 30 June 2027 with the possibility of permanency.
