    Default job background
    Description

    APS5 - EL1 Policy Officers - Expressions of Interest

    HorizonOne Recruitment reverses traditional recruiting models so you are the focus of our recruiting efforts – we tailor our service to ensure we find you the best possible fit.

    The Opportunity

    HorizonOne Recruitment has a consistent flow of policy roles available in federal government. These roles range from short term contracts (3 months) to long term contracts (12 months or more), as well as permanent s26 transfer positions. It is very common for high performing contracting candidates to receive repeated extensions on their contracts or secure permanency in the APS.

    With a range of positions regularly available, we are seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified candidates due to placing a large majority of or active and registered candidates.

    In the current market, the majority of our government clients are looking to fill salaried non-ongoing contracts (also known as fixed term contracts). However, we still have a small number of labour hire contracts available.

    Our client base is focused primarily in the ACT region and require candidates to be attend their Canberra office for at least a portion of the week, thus we are only seeking candidates located in Canberra.

    The Role

    The responsibilities of each position will vary, but as a Policy Officer in government, you will often be required to:

    • Prepare quality policy advice that aligns with the department/agency's strategic objectives for various decision-making bodies, senior management and other decision makers
    • Prepare government briefing documents including question time briefs, senate estimates briefs, media releases and ministerial submissions
    • Engage with a range of internal and external stakeholders to support the development of informed, strategic policy advice and the achievement of desired outcomes
    The Ideal Person

    Given the requirements of our clients, we are looking for candidates that already have established experience in policy (or a related area) in a government environment (federal, state or local).

    To be successful as a Policy Officer, you will typically have strong research, analytical and conceptual thinking skills to produce high quality and timely policy advice. You'll have excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to build productive and collaborative working relationships with internal and external stakeholders. You'll exercise sound judgement, work to tight deadlines, manage high workloads and be flexible in responding to changing priorities.

    A strong policy candidate will often have a tertiary qualification and subject matter expertise in a specialist policy area.

    To be eligible to work in federal government, you must be an Australian citizen, be willing to undergo a police check and have a Baseline security clearance (or be eligible to obtain one).

    Salary / Rate

    Salaries will be dependent on the enterprise agreement of the government department/agency. An approximate salary range at each level is:
    • APS5: $75k - $90k + super
    • APS6: $88k - $105k + super
    • EL1: $100k - $130k + super
    Seeking candidates located in the ACT only as our client base is located primarily in the Canberra region
