Exports & Veterinary Services Division
Canberra - ACT, Melbourne - VIC, Sydney-NSW
Join the team in DAFF that's responsible for managing food safety risks with imported food.
You will be part of a team that supports our risk-based border inspection scheme and the laboratories that test imported food.
If you are passionate about food safety, we want to hear from you.
Why YOU are important to us and what impact will you have on the Exports & Veterinary Services and the departments’ goal.
Our work helps expand trade by negotiating technical access for food and we represent Australia in setting global food standards. We regulate the export of animal products and import of food products through the delivery of inspection and certification services
We oversee the export regulation of dairy, fish, eggs, organic goods and other specialty products. We are also responsible for policy development and regulation of imported food safety controls. We manage the National Residue Survey which conducts animal and plant residue testing for participating industries and drive reforms to keep our export systems strong, trusted and future-ready.
The Imported Food section develops policy and then monitors and enforces compliance of food imported into Australia to facilitate trade in food. As a regulator, we manage imported food safety risks at the border through the Imported Food Inspection Scheme. As a Policy Officer you will be responsible for developing effective and risk-proportionate Imported Food policy in line with the department’s regulatory priorities and responsibilities. As a Technical Officer you will be responsible for providing technical input to support the operation of the Imported Food Inspection Scheme.
This is where you play an important role.
Across both the Policy Officer and Technical Officer role your duties may include, but are not limited to:

Processing failing food notifications and publication of monthly reports.
Assisting with the design and management of electronic profiles for targeting imported food and investigating referral issues.
Support undertaking projects and conducting research and reviews as required on aspects of imported food policy and operations.
Providing support to the maintenance of Imported Food information in BICONAs.
A Policy Officer, the duties may include, but are not limited to:
Contributing to the development of food safety risk management policy that is proportionate to risk and can be practically applied at the border.
Developing work instructions to support transparent and defensible decision making for risk management.
Contributing to the management of government-to-government food safety certification arrangements.
Managing the administration of Food Import Compliance Agreement (FICA) clients.
Assist with implementing changes to Imported Food legislation.
Contributing to government briefing and assist with horizon scanning to monitor international food safety issues and taking appropriate follow up action when needed.
Assist with the development and publication of stakeholder communication material.
Please note that the merit pool established through this selection process, which is valid for a period of eighteen months from the date the vacancy was advertised in the Public Service Gazette, may also be used to fill future ongoing vacancies in the branch where the duties are of a similar nature.
