University of Tasmania Career Directory Profiles

As a Performance Auditor, I work in a small team of 2–4 people to produce a 50 page report over 6–12 months.

The work is diverse and challenging, allowing me to continue to develop the knowledge and skills I need for a successful career.

I’ve learned so much in a short time. I feel content knowing my work has a direct relationship with ultimately making the lives of Australians better.

I love being able to rotate through the agency to get a clearer idea of how the overall agency operates. It has also helped me try out jobs to see if they are a good fit for me or not. It is very cool to be in Canberra too, it feels like I am in the heart of the nation’s politics and press, and that can feel exciting. 

The coolest thing about my role is when we receive partner reporting (NZNGO reporting on activities we have funded) and I get to read about, and evaluate, the impact our funding is having at a community level.

The work has been challenging but doable, and as my time goes on in the program, I feel I can give more back to my team and the projects they’re running.

I enjoy meeting with different teams and coming up with a solution that works for everyone.
