We seek to attract, develop and retain a diverse, enthusiastic and high-performing workforce. To help us in achieving this, we maintain a register of interested applicants that managers may search to fill temporary (non-ongoing) roles up to a period of 18 months. 

We may use the register to fill short term full-time or part-time positions, depending on business needs. You can read more about our benefits and conditions in the NHMRC Enterprise Agreement 2016-2019. In addition, the Australian Public Service Commissioner approved a Section24(1) Determination – National Health and Medical Council Non-SES Employees Determination 2020 which outlines the salary and allowance rates for the agency from 2020-2023.
