Recruitment of the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Registrar of the Administrative Review Tribunal
The Australian Government has commenced the search for the dual role of Chief Executive Officer and Principal Registrar of the new Administrative Review Tribunal (ART), the body that will replace the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT).
Subject to the passage of legislation that will establish the ART, the role will commence in 2024. This is an opportunity for an appropriately qualified individual to make a significant contribution to the most important reform of the federal system of administrative review in decades.
The Chief Executive Officer and Principal Registrar will support the President of the ART in managing the Tribunal’s administrative affairs and pursuing its objectives. They will also manage the corporate and registry services of the Tribunal.
The Chief Executive Officer and Principal Registrar will be pivotal in establishing the ART, finalising the transition from the AAT and setting up the new Tribunal for long-term success. The successful candidate will lead with integrity and promote a safe, respectful and inclusive workplace culture.
This appointment will be made for a period of five years through a transparent and merit-based assessment process informed by the legislation currently before parliament and the AAT Appointment Guidelines.
