Overview

The Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry supports agricultural industries, trade and biosecurity. It has announced March 2027 recruitment for the 2028 Australian Government Graduate Program. Its published development model includes three rotations, formal training and progression from APS4 to APS5. Business-relevant work spans accounting, financial operations, commercial support, workforce planning, communications and policy. Listed programme locations include Canberra, Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. The detailed stream sections still contain previous-intake application and eligibility text, so exact 2028 streams and restrictions need confirmation before applying. Only the explicit future intake announcement is treated as current recruitment timing.
