About the Opportunity
AUSTRAC, Australia's financial intelligence unit and anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) regulator, is evolving to strengthen its fight against money laundering and terrorism financing. As we expand our regulatory reach, and leverage international partnerships, we work to protect Australia from serious and organised crime to help build a more resilient global financial system. To help achieve these goals, we are seeking to fill 2 roles - APS6 Specialists, Multilateral Engagement, within the Multilateral Engagement and Coordination team.
APS6 Specialist, Multilateral Engagement
These roles offer a unique opportunity to support regional financial intelligence collaboration,
and support opportunities for joint action on mutual financial crime threats that affect Australia and our international neighbours. You'll support the engagement of key partners, gaining valuable exposure and experience in international cooperation initiatives. You'll have strong awareness of the evolving political, social, and economic landscape in the Pacific and /or Southeast Asia region.
Intelligence
As Australia's Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU), the Intelligence division analyses data and generates key financial intelligence on money laundering, terrorism financing and a wide range of other crime types and national security matters.
