They are responsible for many aspects of the election process, including the management of polling places and polling place staff, taking candidate nominations and supervising the election in their district or region on polling day.

    We are looking for someone who has had experience in leading and managing significant projects and large teams. You will understand budget management, stakeholder management, internal and external communications, risk management, operations, complex schedules and overall service delivery.

    You will work within the Election Operations Division and as a member of the Commission will work to achieve its objectives, comply with its values and provide services which are compatible with existing frameworks.

    · Experience in project management and sound knowledge of project management principles, tools and techniques.
