NT Treasury

As a central government agency, Treasury is a trusted and influential adviser to the Northern Territory Government and is involved across the range of Government’s activities. Our mission is to promote sustainable fiscal strength, economic development and improved social wellbeing for Territorians.

What We Offer

Our workforce is dynamic, young and professional and has skills and knowledge in economics, accounting, commerce, law, resource management, information communication and technology, policy and corporate services.

Treasury’s Finance Officer In Training (FOIT) graduate development program is well recognised and highly regarded within the Territory public sector. The program is a year-long learning experience where FOITs are provided with hands-on work experience in various Treasury business units as well as a comprehensive personal and professional training and development package.

You will have opportunities to work directly with highly sensitive and confidential information involving leading edge government policy issues and major government projects, be involved in agency and whole of government financial information and planning, develop and improve legislation, and audit and investigate compliance with tax laws.

Treasury services a smaller jurisdiction than our larger interstate counterparts so there are greater opportunities to gain experience across a broad range of government issues.

Treasury is a great place for anyone starting their new career, with significant opportunities for internal advancement, career development and networking.

Treasury offers generous salary and employment conditions and real opportunities for job security on completion of the program.

Interesting Facts 
  • Almost one-third of Treasury staff began their Treasury career as a FOIT!
  • Of the graduates recruited in the last five years, almost 70 per cent are still employed with Treasury or in the Territory public sector!
  • Great opportunities to influence public policy and make a real difference in the Territory community!
