NACC employees are engaged under the Public Service Act 1999 (Cth).
To work with us you must:
- be an Australian citizen
- pass a pre-employment medical if required
- complete a pre-employment suitability screening in relation to your honesty, trustworthiness, maturity, tolerance and loyalty
- get and keep an Australian Government security clearance to the specified level
- not have received an Australian Public Service (APS) redundancy within a restricted period.
Security clearance
All NACC staff require a security clearance. The level of clearance depends on the role.
If you do not hold a valid security clearance you will need to undergo a security clearance by the Australian Government Security Vetting Agency (see AGSVA website).
If we select you as a preferred candidate, we’ll send you the forms for the police check and security clearance.
Recruitment process
Our recruitment processes involve 3 stages:
- Application
- Selection
- Offer
Application
You must register, complete an application form and submit your resume through NACC’s online recruitment system.
An information pack for each position is available on the Current vacancies page. It tells you what you need to include in your application and the closing date.
We will contact you to arrange an interview if you progress to interview stage.
Selection
The selection process may include:
- an interview with a selection panel, usually with 2-3 panel members
- reference checks including at least one from a current supervisor
- a skills assessment.
Offer
If we select you as the preferred candidate, we will make you a conditional offer of employment. This means the offer depends on you completing the NACC's pre-employment screening process.
If you complete this process, we will make you a formal offer, including a proposed salary and start date. We will give you information about your employment conditions and relevant employment or security documents you need to complete.
If your application is unsuccessful, we will email you once the recruitment process has been finalised.
Your privacy
We collect personal information from you when you apply for a job at the NACC.
The Privacy Act 1988 protects the personal information you provide. We will only use it for recruitment purposes. For more information read our Recruitment privacy policy.
