Many of CSIRO's innovations were once considered impossible. Fast WiFi, Aerogard insect repellent and the plastic Australian banknote, to name a few. Until someone, just like you, joined us and took on the challenge. We're recruiting inventors, innovators and change makers. Join Team CSIRO and help make the impossible possible.


The Australian Centre for Disease Preparedness (ACDP), formerly the Australian Animal Health Laboratory (AAHL), our national biocontainment research facility, is a vital part of Australia's biosecurity infrastructure.

Our team works closely with researchers, and animal and human health agencies to protect Australia's multi-billion dollar livestock and aquaculture industries, and the general public, from emerging infectious disease threats.


We are looking for a Quality Assurance professional to join the CSIRO Australian Centre for Disease Preparedness (ACDP) in a hands on role for a specified term to guide and collaborate with staff across a range of areas in the implementation and adoption of various ISO standards.

  • Assist in effectively managing and maintaining controlled documents across site.
  • Support the implementation of harmonised Quality Assurance (QA) at ACDP through technical support and delivery of priority quality activities and processes and provide advice to scientific and animal teams on QMS use.
  • Build and maintain strong, positive partnering relationships with customers, Business Unit partners and staff and QA corporate citizens through developing a thorough understanding of their respective QA needs and tailoring solutions.
  • Support operational plans to expand existing accreditations and future accreditations in GLP, ISO 17034 and ISO 3500
  • Assist with management of external audits (regulators, sponsors, customers).
  • Support Business Units in managing quality requirements and using Q-Pulse and LMS.
