Overview

Our Employment Registers are available for use by non-employees. Current employees should lodge their interest for additional hours or duties on the intranet Expression of Interest page. Registers provide a mechanism to recruit to casual vacancies and may also be used to fill short, fixed‑term vacancies where normal recruitment processes are not practicable. For permanent and more lengthy fixed‑term vacancies please refer to the individual advertisements on .

This Register will remain open until 30 June 2028 and will be reviewed on a regular basis. A fixed‑term and casual employment register is not a vacancy and inclusion on a register does not guarantee any offer of employment will be made.
