At ACAT, you'll be part of a team that helps make justice accessible, fair and efficient for the ACT community. You'll have the opportunity to develop your skills, work closely with senior leaders and contribute to meaningful outcomes in a unique and rewarding environment.

If you're looking for a challenging and rewarding administrative role where your work makes a genuine difference, we'd love to hear from you.
