Security clearance
All NACC staff require a security clearance. The level of clearance depends on the role.

If we select you as a preferred candidate, we’ll send you the forms for the police check and security clearance.
Recruitment process
Our recruitment processes involve 3 stages:
- Application
- Selection
- Offer
Application
You must register, complete an application form and submit your resume via NACC’s online recruitment system.
An information pack for each position is available on the Current vacancies page. It tells you what you need to include in your application and the closing date.
If you progress to interview stage, we will contact you to arrange an interview.
Selection
The selection process may include:
- an interview with a selection panel (usually with 2-3 panel members)

If we select you as the preferred candidate, we will make you a conditional offer of employment. The offer will be conditional on you satisfactorily completing NACC’s pre-employment screening process.
If you proceed through this process, we will make you a formal offer, including a proposed salary and commencement date. We will provide information about your employment conditions and other relevant employment and security documentation.
If your application is unsuccessful we will notify you by email once the recruitment process has been finalised.
