The Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) is getting ready to ensure it has the temporary workforce needed to run the 2022 federal election. It needs to employ up to 100,000 people in paid jobs around the country.

The AEC’s temporary workforce plays an important role not only on election day, but throughout the election period in polling places and counting centres, and in administration and logistics jobs.


Working at federal elections offers you a great opportunity to earn extra money, contribute to your community and work as part of a team.

  • No election experience is required and training is provided.
  • There are roles in cities, regions and remote areas right across Australia.
  • COVID-19 safety measures will be in place to help protect you at election workplaces.
  • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and people from a culturally and linguistically diverse background, are encouraged to apply.
  • Please note, you must be an Australian citizen to work for the AEC.
  • Information on roles, pay and conditions can be found via the link below.
