The answer to the honourable senator's question is as follows:

(a) All positions are advertised. Where internal candidates do not have the skills, knowledge or experience to perform the duties of the position, the position may be advertised externally.

(b) Australia Post may recruit directly or use an external panel recruitment agency to source candidates. The responsible manager would decide which candidate was the best and, together with their HR Business Partner and Recruitment team, organise the appointment.

(c) Position descriptions are developed by the relevant manager with assistance from their HR Business Partner.
