About us

The Portable Long Service Authority (the Authority) is a self-funded statutory body established to administer the Long Service Benefits Portability Act 2018. The Act, together with the Long Service Benefits Portability Regulations 2020 provide a Portable Long Service Benefits Scheme. The Authority plays an important role in allowing workers in the community services, contract cleaning and security industries to build up long service benefits based on time in their industry rather than with a single employer. We foster an inclusive and collaborative culture that celebrates achievements and allows everyone to contribute to our success.

About the role

The Manager Employer Regulation will lead the employer regulation team to support the Authority's regulatory approach of ensuring all employers fully comply with their legislative obligations under the Long Service Benefits Portability Act (the Act) and related regulations, in particular regarding workers who are covered by the Scheme. The Manager Employer Regulation will also deliver a proactive audit program to ensure that employers are registering their full covered workforce and recording their workers' full-service credits to identify and advance instances of non-compliance for regulatory action.

About you

To be successful you will be an experienced Regulator with the aptitude to quickly upskill to be a subject matter expert on the operation of relevant Acts and regulations and a proven ability to make recommendations and/or operational decisions on the application of a regulatory scheme.

You will have well honed knowledge and skills in designing and implementing regulatory frameworks and processes and communicating with a range of stakeholders with differing perspectives to develop strategic resolutions and decisions to achieve objectives.
