Here at the Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission (VGCCC) we have an opportunity for a Governance Support Officer to join our Legal, Policy and Compliance Division. If you are looking to develop your skills, and knowledge in a thriving environment, take a step up and come and join us.

About us

The Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission (VGCCC) is the independent regulator of Victoria's gambling industry. In everything we do – and in our regulatory functions to licence and approval, to monitor and analyse, to educate and inform and in enforcing – we aim to ensure integrity, safety and fairness for all.

• Integrity: We want Victorians to have confidence the gambling industry is well regulated. That it's being run honestly, free from criminal influence and exploitation. We hold operators to account on both their legal and social licences to operate.
• Safety: We closely monitor gambling operators through a lens of minimising gambling harm. We boldly apply and direct our powers to those who are not keeping people as safe as possible.
• Fairness: We will not allow people – especially those vulnerable to gambling harm – to be unfairly targeted. This includes addictive play features, disguised or undisclosed playing odds, or a high concentration of gaming machines. We want the community to be informed to make reasonable choices.

In addition to our Purpose, we have adopted three key Strategic Ambitions for our organisation:

• To be renowned for regulatory excellence
• To provide an exceptional employee experience
• To have a fit-for-purpose operating model.

We work in a complex and challenging space. But all our staff are united in the knowledge that we can make a difference for the community we serve. That's why it's important to us that all employees share our common values:
