Help shape decisions that make a difference across NSW

Join the DCITHS (Department of Creative Industries, Tourism, Hospitality and Sport) team or the PHI (Planning, Housing and Infrastructure) team within NSW Treasury’s Transport, Arts, Regions and Planning division and contribute to work that helps shape government priorities and outcomes across NSW.

More information about the Policy and Budget Group and the Transport, Arts, Regions and Planning Division can be found here .

As an Advisor, you’ll bring together research, data and financial and policy analysis to provide clear, evidence-based advice that supports government decision-making, Budget processes and policy development. You’ll work collaboratively with colleagues across Treasury and NSW Government agencies, gaining exposure to complex and evolving issues while building your experience in a central government agency.

Your day as an Advisor in the DCITHS or PHI team

No two days will look exactly the same. You may be:

- researching policy, regulatory, financial and economic issues
- analysing agency financial performance, business cases, programs and funding proposals
- identifying emerging trends, risks and opportunities
- preparing clear and concise briefings, reports, presentations and correspondence
- supporting NSW Government Budget processes and strategic projects
- engaging with Treasury colleagues, government agencies and other stakeholders




- contributing ideas and practical recommendations that support better public sector outcomes.

You will work with experienced colleagues who will support you to build your knowledge, apply your judgement and develop high-quality advice for decision-makers. The role provides exposure to evolving information, competing priorities and complex issues, making it an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys learning, collaborating and solving problems.

You don't need to know everything from day one. We are looking for someone who is motivated to learn and can bring:

- strong research and analytical skills, with the ability to draw insights from complex information
- an interest in public policy, financial management, economics or government decision-making
- sound judgement and attention to detail
- curiosity, initiative and a practical approach to problem-solving
- the ability to organise priorities and deliver quality work in a changing environment
- confidence building productive relationships and working collaboratively with others.

Experience analysing data, business cases, program information or policy, financial or economic issues will be valuable. You will also need a relevant tertiary qualification, or equivalent demonstrated professional experience.

What can you expect from us





The team you will join is made up of a diverse and welcoming group of people. We understand what starting a new job is like, and to ensure you have the most positive experience we will ‘Buddy’ you up with a team member to help settle you in.
