Take your career somewhere unexpected
GO FURTHER, FASTER
Your first job can shape your first 5 years.
At the Department of Treasury and Finance, you’ll contribute to meaningful work from the start. From the Territory Budget and economic modelling to policy and major investments, you’ll work on projects that help shape the future of the NT.
This isn’t a graduate year spent watching from the sidelines.

WHAT ARE YOU UP TO FOR THE NEXT 5 YEARS?
Your five-year plan just got an upgrade.
There’s no single path your career has to follow here.
A graduate role can lead to opportunities across Treasury and Finance and the wider NT Government.
Your path will depend on where your strengths and interests take you. What matters is the opportunity to build breadth, responsibility and connections early.
You’ll work alongside experienced professionals, interact with senior leaders and build an understanding of government few graduates get this early.
REAL WORK. REAL RESPONSIBILITY.
Do work that matters
Your graduate year isn’t about observing from the sidelines. You’ll work with experienced professionals, senior leaders and teams across government.
