FWO Employment Register 2026

About this role

The Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) is an independent statutory office established by the Fair Work Act 2009. Our role is to promote harmonious, productive and cooperative workplace relations and ensure compliance with Australian workplace laws. We are valued by the community for supporting compliant, productive and inclusive Australian workplaces and we deliver practical workplace relations advice and assistance. FWO promotes cultural and workplace diversity and encourages applications from candidates with disabilities, Indigenous Australians or from non-English speaking backgrounds. This employment register may be used to fill non-ongoing (temporary) employment opportunities. Such opportunities may arise on an ad hoc basis and are often required to be filled at short notice. The positions may be full-time or part-time. FWO provides a challenging and supportive work environment with access to great training and development opportunities and flexible working arrangements to meet your personal circumstances. You will be rewarded and recognised for your performance and have the satisfaction of knowing you work for an agency which aims to achieve fairness in workplaces. We offer temporary opportunities from APS level 3 to Executive Level 2. You will be required to select which APS level that you are interested in. Visit the APS Work Level Standards page to help determine your APS level, along with the typical duties, functions and types of tasks performed at each classification level.
