Working at the Commission

Permanent opportunities

The Commission advertises all permanent full-time and part-time job vacancies on the WA Government Jobs Board.

Casual opportunities

At a State general election the Commission employs casual staff to work at polling places across Western Australia on polling day. In addition, casual staff are employed at various early voting locations or on mobile polling teams before polling day, and at the Count Centre in the Perth CBD after polling day.

Internship Program

To help minimise the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the public and our staff, the WAEC has decided not to offer internships for 2020.
