The opportunity
  • Bring your QA expertise to the implementation and adoption of various ISO standards at ACDP
  • Collaborate, facilitate and oversee ACDP's Integrated Management System, especially the Internal Audit Program
  • Work within a supportive, rewarding, and collaborative team environment

Many of CSIRO's innovations were once considered impossible. Fast WiFi, Aerogard insect repellent and the plastic Australian banknote, to name a few. Until someone, just like you, joined us and took on the challenge. We’re recruiting inventors, innovators and change makers. Join Team CSIRO and help make the impossible possible.


The Australian Centre for Disease Preparedness (ACDP), formerly the Australian Animal Health Laboratory (AAHL), our national biocontainment research facility, is a vital part of Australia’s biosecurity infrastructure. Our team works closely with researchers, and animal and human health agencies to protect Australia’s multi-billion dollar livestock and aquaculture industries, and the general public, from emerging infectious disease threats.

We are seeking an experienced Senior Quality Assurance professional to join the QA Team at the CSIRO Australian Centre for Disease Preparedness (ACDP) and guide and collaborate with staff across a range of areas in the implementation and adoption of various ISO standards. As a Senior QA Advisor, you will play a key role in facilitating ACDP’s IMS processes, particularly the Internal Audit Program, Deviations/Complaints process, oversee equipment and training registers, as well as independently manage and optimise key quality and environmental improvement projects.  You will be responsible for supporting the continual improvement of ACDP’s quality culture, processes, and environmental impact as part of the QA team.

Your duties will include:
  • Drive and support the implementation of a harmonised Quality Assurance (QA) at ACDP.
  • Build and maintain strong, positive partnering relationships with stakeholders.
  • Provide expert advice to scientific and animal teams on QA principles, processes, and documentation.
  • Schedule, oversee and perform QA internal audits as well as periodically report outcomes to various stakeholders including senior management.
  • Oversee equipment and training registers as part of the Integrated Management System.
  • Assist with the management of external audits (regulators, sponsors, customers) and support teams in addressing non-conformances and recommendations.
  • Support Business Units in reporting and investigating deviations and customer complaints promptly.
  • Support site BSI and NATA certifications/accreditations at ACD.

Location: Geelong, Victoria

Salary: AU$110k - AU$119k plus up to 15.4% superannuation

Tenure: Specified term ending 29 May 2026 / Full-time

Reference: 97067

To be considered you will need:
  • Relevant Degree &/or equivalent experience in biological sciences or quality management or equivalent experience working in a similar QA role.
  • Relevant education and training to demonstrate an advanced understanding of QA processes such as ISO 9001, ISO 17025, ISO 14001, ISO 17043 and ISO 17034, and their application.
  • Demonstrated ability to work with teams to coordinate quality systems and optimize existing systems utilising team resources to provide a seamless and consistent approach. 
  • Previous experience working as a specialist advisor for scientific and industry colleagues in leading and fostering a culture of knowledge transfer, open communication, coaching and collaboration across the quality team, internal stakeholders, and customers.
  • NATA accredited lead assessor training
  • Hands-on experience using Quality and Learning Management Systems such as Q-Pulse, Success Factors
