Stepping into the heart of the NSW Government
You will have an invaluable opportunity to create a positive impact for the people of New South Wales.

You will be challenged to provide the best outcomes possible in this role while developing and growing your own skills.

When you join Treasury, you join an organisation that is a whole-of-government financial and economic advisor.

Treasury is a critical component of the government and provides advice that informs a wide range of financial, economic and policy driven work for the state of NSW.

We consider work-life balance a key feature of being employed here.

You will have the flexibility to manage your work schedule around times that best suit your life outside of the workplace and in line with organisational needs.

Enrich your career with the NSW Treasury
While we are certain you will already have your own expertise to ensure success in this role, you will also continue to learn and improve your skills in core areas, including:

preparing timely and authoritative expert advice and recommendations on emerging issues in fiscal strategy or credit ratings

- providing support in the preparation on the State Budget, Half-Yearly Review and the Report on State Finances
- representing Treasury in internal and external stakeholder engagement and consultations
- adapting to changing priorities, ambiguity and complexity in a time constrained environment.

You will join our

Budget Division, Policy & Budget Group. Read more about your future Group and Division.

Advisor role will provide you with the opportunity to expand your network as you will have the chance to work with multiple teams, agencies, external stakeholders, and organisations to help shape your career.

Investing in you
The team you will join is made up of a diverse and welcoming group of people.

We understand what starting a new job is like, and to ensure you have the most positive experience we will 'Buddy' you up with a team member to help settle you in.

Flexible hybrid working at our office at 52 Martin Place, Sydney with standard working hours 35 hours per week.
Accrue quarterly flex time for any hours worked over the standard hours, and enjoy true work life balance
A healthy workplace, both mentally and physically. Our

You'll be instrumental in managing the State's ties with Credit Rating agencies, carrying out research and analysis pertinent to the State's credit rating, and aiding in the delivery of the State's yearly credit rating reviews.

As a reliable Advisor, you'll also lend your expertise in preparing the State Budget, Half-Yearly Review, and the Report on State Finances.

This role necessitates the establishment and preservation of robust relationships with Treasury and external contacts.
