Jobs Available for Census

On Monday 22 February, the Australian Bureau of Statistics commenced recruitment of over 300 Census remote area team roles across Australia to work on the upcoming Census. The teams will comprise Remote Area Management Team Leaders and Remote Area Management Team Members. Both roles have responsibility for ensuring that people in remote and very remote areas are counted in the Census including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, and people in national parks and pastoral stations.

Team leaders will be responsible for the recruitment and management of remote field staff. These teams will conduct the Census count in remote areas including out-stations and follow up on households that have not completed their Census. The focus is on recruiting candidates within the local area that have strong connections to remote communities.

Please note Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are strongly encouraged to apply. A number of positions are subject to affirmative measures.
