Be an IO
Not just anybody can do this job. It takes a special type of person to succeed. Given the challenging and complex nature of the work we’re looking for unique people. Those who are at ease talking and listening to people from all walks of life; creative thinkers, critical minds, with the ability to take a step back and see the bigger picture. Are you that person?
Confident and astute, you’ll be adept at documenting information clearly and in a targeted manner. Mentally resilient, you’ll be prepared to undergo our psychological assessments and background checks.
Additionally, you’ll need to meet the following requirements:
- A university degree (any discipline), completed by 30 June 2010 for the July 2010 Training program
- Australian citizenship
- A driver’s licence
- Willing to relocate to Canberra for your 12 month training program
- Flexibility for a mobile career.
You can learn more about these and other things you should consider before applying for the IO role, on our 'Should I Apply' page.
We will offer successful IO candidates a salary between $59,223 and $75,403 plus superannuation for the period of the training program. In determining your starting salary, we will consider your education and employment history.
ASIO is a special organisation, but we’re focused on the everyday. Our people are supportive, down-to-earth and quick to encourage.
