AUSIT is governed by a National Council, comprising a six-member National Executive and a delegate from each branch. The branches in turn are managed by branch committees, which typically include a branch chair, secretary, treasurer, PD coordinator, and membership officer. To support AUSIT’s work, National Council has established several part-time positions: National PD Coordinator, Education Officer, and Communications Officer. There are also various national committees to oversee specific aspects of AUSIT’s work on behalf of National Council. The National Council can be contacted at admin@ausit.org.

AUSIT’s day-to-day administrative work and secretariat services are provided by Office Logistics, which handles membership matters and general enquiries from members and the public. This includes assistance finding and working with a suitable professional translator or interpreter.
