EL1 Senior Investigator, Adult Cyber Abuse
Australian Communications and Media Authority
Here’s a new and very interesting role that is relevant to modern times.
Our ideal candidate
We are seeking a motivated team member to deliver on our purpose of compassionately achieving real outcomes for Australians in the online world.
Our ideal candidate will have excellent oral and written communication skills, including confidence and compassion in handling difficult conversations with distressed complainants. Experience in dealing with people experiencing mental health issues would be desirable.
You will be able to focus on the goal of our agency to promote online safety for all Australians while navigating the uncertainty that comes with a constantly changing regulatory environment. You will have a positive outlook and will work within our regulatory limitations to address complainant reports, while showing resilience, maturity, and the ability to apply reason, common sense and sensitivity when assessing offensive or illegal material. You will have a demonstrated ability to develop strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including with domestic and international regulators and networks.

The work of the section is fast-paced and requires balancing competing priorities, while being adaptable to support the overall team when priorities and individual workloads change. A capacity to focus in a high-pressure environment, be self-driven and a supportive team-player, with demonstrated resilience to achieve objectives even in difficult circumstances, is important.
