The High Court of Australia (the Court) is seeking administration professionals to fill multiple positions within the Registry Branch in its Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne offices.

In this role, you will contribute to the efficient day-to-day operation of the Court’s Registry function by providing administrative and customer service support. Key responsibilities include responding to enquiries, maintaining records, processing and receipting payments made to the Court, and undertaking a range of general administrative and clerical duties.

The Registry Branch is the primary point of contact for legal practitioners and self-represented litigants who wish to commence proceedings in the Court. It is also an important source of information for the legal profession and members of the public seeking information about proceedings before the Court and the role and functions of the Court. Through these activities, the Registry supports the effective administration of the Court's judicial work.
