The AEC employs around 80,000 Australians to deliver a federal election. There are election roles available before, on or after election day.
People from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds are encouraged to apply.
When nominating for federal elections candidates can complete a qualification checklist to demonstrate their eligibility under s44 of the Constitution.
A redistribution is a redrawing of electoral boundaries to provide, as close as possible, a similar number of people in each division.
Since the 2016 federal election the AEC has conducted a number of Senate special counts following decisions by the High Court regarding the eligibility of candidates.
Statements of results for special Senate counts are updated as available.
