We're seeking graduates with an interest or background in data science, business information systems, IT engineering or IT security (and other similar fields) to join our 2025 graduate program in Canberra. As a data analyst at the ANAO, you’ll help discover insights into government policies and programs as you develop scripts, visualisations and pipelines to answer audit-related questions. Or as an IT auditor, you’ll investigate and evaluate the vast IT infrastructure used by the government to deliver services to the Australian people.

See and be different at the ANAO:
Work at the cutting edge of modelling and audit automation — or with some of the biggest IT systems in the Southern Hemisphere
Our data analysts use problem-solving and programming expertise to analyse complex and varied data across a wide range of topics. If this is your area of expertise, you’ll work with innovative technology for statistical modelling, data mining, text mining and process mining to help us examine the big public issues of the day — from mass-scale infrastructure projects through to the delivery of services to communities.
On the other hand, our IT auditors examine the systems, platforms and networks used by government agencies, as well as their IT policies and procedures. In an IT audit role, you’ll evaluate whether these are functioning properly, keeping information secure and achieving intended goals and objectives. You’ll audit systems used by some of the Australian Government’s biggest departments (e.g. Australian Taxation Office, Department of Defence, Services Australia) and a host of small to medium-sized agencies, authorities and companies. Job variety is guaranteed!
If you’ve completed a data analytics, business information systems, engineering or IT security degree in the last seven years — or have a strong interest in these areas — we want to hear from you! Other characteristics that will help you flourish at the ANAO include:
