Graduate Opportunities

Treasury monitors and advises on a range of economic issues, but the scope of the work that Treasury is involved in goes beyond economics. Developing crisis management arrangements for banks and other financial institutions, the not-for-profit sector reform, and the production of the Federal Budget are just a few of the many issues that our employees are involved in.

If you have an interest in public policy and are looking for a challenging and rewarding career with the potential to impact the lives of all Australians, then Treasury could be for you. You could find yourself working on economic forecasting, providing advice on effective government spending arrangements, designing tax legislation, or helping to promote competitive and efficient markets to enhance consumer wellbeing.

Graduate Development Program
The Graduate Development Program provides you with formal in-house and external training to ensure that you have the necessary skills to succeed in your role. In addition, you will have the opportunity to participate in key events such as the Budget lock-up and post-Budget question time. You will also be supported by senior Treasury staff through extensive on-the-job training and mentoring.

Based in Canberra, Treasury offers graduates 3 six month rotations, which gives you the opportunity to gain exposure to a broad range of work undertaken in the Department as well as develop strong networks within Treasury.
