Looking for a meaningful next step in your career? We're hiring an Analyst to help investigate how public services are performing across Tasmania. You don't need to be an accountant — just curious, analytical, and ready to learn. This is a great opportunity for early-career professionals with research, policy, or data skills.
We're looking for curious, thoughtful people who want to make a real difference in how public services work in Tasmania.
Join a respected, independent organisation that helps improve government performance and build public trust. We investigate how well public sector programs and services are working, and report our findings and recommendations to Parliament and the community. This has a significant impact in shaping public administration.
The type of audit we do is called a performance audit.
Are public services delivering what they promised?
Are public dollars being used efficiently?
What could be done more economically?
If this sounds like the job for you, we'd love to hear from you, especially if you:
have worked in small teams to solve complex problems or complete research projects
are comfortable with data (even if it's not financial) and spotting patterns or insights
are interested in how government works and how public services can improve
can write clearly about complex topics for different audiences.
You can see what we're working on in the Auditor-General's Annual Plan ******* on our website.
We may use this recruitment process to fill current and future vacancies on a permanent and fixed-term basis.
