We do science with real impact. We thrive when taking on the big challenges facing the world. We take educated risks and defy convention. We celebrate successes and failures and leverage them to learn as we strive to be the force for positive change.

Perks & Benefits

Flexible work

All team members have access to flexible working arrangements, including how you work, when you work and where you work. We provide a work from home set up and have locations around Australia.

Miscellaneous leave

Miscellaneous leave is intended to provide flexibility to meet a staff member's personal circumstances and to provide leave during the annual shut down period. It allows greater flexibility in leave arrangements so that staff members can attend to family and personal obligations or emergencies without resorting to categories of leave intended for other purposes. Our staff members accrue miscellaneous leave at the rate of four days per year.

Study Leave

Many staff members undertake additional study while they are with us. Financial assistance with studies may be granted to team members who undertake an educational commitment, as well as the opportunity to access other benefits like study leave.

Health Promotion

Some of our sites offer health promotion initiatives such as fitness/yoga classes, walking groups, courses and seminars, as well as facilities such as showers, change rooms, sporting fields and gymnasiums. Employees are supported in their efforts in making a regular commitment to a healthy lifestyle and are encouraged to participate in the health promotion programs offered. These programs are generally arranged and managed by volunteer staff members, with the support of site management.

Employee Assistance Program

CSIRO employees and their immediate family members are entitled to free, voluntary, and confidential counselling services at any time. Several sessions are offered at no cost, which enable discussions on a range of issues, either work-related or personal, with a qualified professional.
