Our pitch to you

We want Victoria to be innovative and progressive.

So we’re on the lookout for people with a range of skills, backgrounds and lived experiences.

Our graduate program has streams tailored to what you studied at university.

Plus, we’ve got pathways you can opt into if you’re an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander person or a person with disability.

As a graduate, you’ll:

  • have diverse roles
  • work in different departments
  • get access to learning and development opportunities
  • learn and grow with mentors and peer networks
  • be guaranteed a job at the end of the program.

We recruit twice a year for a February 2025 start date. Note that you can only apply in one round and not both.
