We are seeking highly driven and innovative Risk Directors to join our Compliance and Engagement Group where you’ll have strategic accountability for leading the management of compliance and integrity risks for a market segment, industry, or revenue products.

Operating in complex and high risk environments, you’ll set the direction for how taxpayer behaviours and compliance risks are identified, prioritised and managed ensuring ATO initiatives are delivered in accordance with government commitments and public expectations.

You will use evidence and analysis to oversee the design and delivery of holistic risk treatment strategies targeted at addressing the drivers of risk.

You will establish and maintain effective governance and assurance arrangements to support prioritisation and decision-making across competing risks, resources and impacts, and to ensure risk treatments are achieving intended outcomes.

Working collaboratively, you’ll lead and influence senior stakeholders across the ATO and external partners to deliver coordinated strategies, while building and leading a high performing workforce that strengthens risk capability and accountability.

This process will also be used to fill EL 2 Risk and Intelligence Director roles. In these roles, you will provide strategic leadership in applying intelligence and risk frameworks to inform how compliance and integrity risks are identified, prioritised and managed across the ATO.

You will be accountable for ensuring data and insights are effectively integrated into risk assessment, treatment design and decision making. This includes setting expectations for quality, governance and assurance, and using intelligence led insights to influence strategic priorities and coordinated responses to emerging and complex risks.

These roles may be offered on an ongoing or non-ongoing basis in Adelaide, Albury, Box Hill (VIC), Brisbane CBD, Canberra, Dandenong, Geelong, Gosford, Hobart, Melbourne CBD, Moonee Ponds, Newcastle, Parramatta, Penrith, Perth, Sydney CBD, Townsville, Upper Mount Gravatt or Wollongong.
