Election jobs on offer for regional Tasmania

The AEC is putting out a call across central and northwest Tasmania for paid workers to help deliver Australia’s next federal election – due by May of 2025.

There has been strong interest in the AEC’s recruitment drive for the next election, but more people are needed across the state.

In particular, the AEC is seeking additional people in the electorates of Braddon and Lyons, covering Tasmania’s midlands and northwest coast, respectively.

Election jobs come in a variety of types, from working on election day through to engagement for longer periods up to 7 weeks.

The AEC is also reminding people who may have worked at the 2023 referendum or a previous federal election that their expression of interest will not carry over for the next federal election – they need to visit the AEC’s website and submit a new registration of interest for temporary employment.

You can register your interest online by visiting the AEC’s website.
