Graduate Opportunities
The Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) aims to foster agriculture, fisheries, food and forestry industries that are more competitive, self-reliant and innovative. We strive to ensure natural resources are sustainably managed and accessed. We support our primary industries with scientific advice and economic research, promote their increased access to markets, and help protect them from diseases.
To ensure we meet the challenges of developing highly competitive yet sustainable industries, we are seeking graduates with a broad range of skills who can promote the economic and environmental wellbeing of our primary industries.
You should have:
- highly developed communication skills and team skills
- strong conceptual, analytical and research skills
- initiative and flexibility.
Through the graduate program, the department offers you a career, not just a job. Indigenous Australians are encouraged to apply.
The DAFF Graduate Development Program is delivered over 11-months and provides challenging opportunities to gain skills and knowledge through three diverse workplace rotations, a leadership residential, and a comprehensive industry project where you will liaise with industry representatives. While completing the GDP you will also undertake a formal learning and development program that results in the award of a Graduate Certificate in Public Administration administered by the University of Canberra.
We seek graduates from a wide range of disciplines including, but not limited to Science, Law, Economics Veterinary Science, Plant Science, Ecology, Commerce, Business, Arts, Agriculture, Communications, Management, Entomology, Rural Studies, Food Technology, Social Science, Human Resource Management and Marine Science/Biology.
