Jobs with us

Working with the Department of the Chief Minister gives you the opportunity for unique experiences and the chance to develop highly sought-after skills, such as whole-of-government policy development.

We support our employees to balance work with life outside work. A number of our staff use flexible work arrangements such as working part-time or working from home. Staff can apply to take their recreation leave at half-pay, purchase additional recreation leave or take extended leave, which means they receive one year of paid leave after working for four years at 80 per cent salary.

We provide a range of development opportunities, including employment for graduates under the Graduate Development Program. We also employ apprentices and Indigenous cadets under the National Indigenous Cadetship Project, as well as taking part in the Entry Level Recruitment Program.
