Salary at Australian National Audit Office (ANAO)

Pay is very good, as far as I know it is one of the highest within the APS.

I don't think bonuses are an effective incentive to get staff to perform in the public service

The pay and bonuses are reasonable, although many would suggest that it is misaligned to the responsibilities.

We are compensated a little more than average compared to larger Departments of State, and I believe this is fair given the technical skills required for the work.

Good

There are no longer bonuses, but the pay is quite reasonable as a graduate and above, given the flex and work-life balance

One of the highest paying employers in the APS

I think the ANAO staff gets decent pay and conditions. Starting salary is especially competitive, and 15.4% super is also great. I feel that pay arrangements for performance auditors can be somewhat tricky. Because there isn't a 'performance auditing' discipline, a lot of performance auditors are sourced from a range of different sectors, including in some industries with high salary expectations (such as law, some STEM backgrounds, from the Big4 consultants, etc.). It is probably unrealistic to be able to match private sector wages especially at higher classifications. Therefore other benefits (such as flexibility and good employment conditions) are equally as important as competitive salary (which is also still very important!).

Public service salary, benefits etc are always good!

The pay is reasonable. There are no bonuses

Well paid, as public sector entity bonuses are limited.

Nothing too crazy, but some you can get reimbursed for glasses.

FTravelling to or working from client offices is a regular occurrence which is reimbursed.

Moving costs are paid for upon relocation.

The potential to win an Australia Day Award that comes with an Akubra hat. Also, we have quarterly town hall meetings that includes morning tea and you get to hear directly from the Auditor General about his thoughts. Also, given the ANAO is small, you may even end up in the lift with the Auditor General, who always says hello.

Moving expenses, good super

Public sector entity, perks are limited.
