ACCC graduates enjoy working in an exciting and challenging environment where they can apply and expand their existing skills and knowledge. They form an important part of a small, high-performing agency that is committed to promoting competition, consumer protection and fair trading in the Australian marketplace.
ACCC graduates also work with the Australian Energy Regulator. As a constituent part of the ACCC, the AER operates as a separate legal entity. As well as other duties, the AER is responsible for the economic regulation of the wholesale electricity market and gas transmission networks.
Our graduate program is professional and responsive. We focus on expanding our graduates' experience and developing their knowledge through on-the-job learning, a series of formal training events and other learning and development activities designed to meet their individual needs.
Graduate rotations are a key element of our program, with graduates taking part in three, 14-week rotations. They work in a range of areas to gain a broad understanding of the work of the ACCC and the AER. Graduates may undertake an interstate rotation as part of their training, which gives them the opportunity to work in another office, meet and learn from different staff and gain a greater understanding of the ACCC and the AER.
