Funding and activation conditions
Submitting an enrolment or application records interest only. Progression, activation, placement and starting work depend on confirmed funding, approved staffing budgets, strategic priorities, resource planning and deployment readiness.

After closing, the selection team aims to identify up to ten suitable candidates for each departmental role family and duty station, subject to enough qualified applicants. Lead and Assistant appointments must each meet the relevant job requirements. Other shortlisted candidates may be invited to discuss additional work where suitable roles are defined; this is not a guarantee of employment.
