The available positions encompass a range of fields, including senior management, intelligence, investigations, operations, finance, human resources, communications, and information management. Most of these roles will be based in Suva, the capital city.
The Director General of the CNB will receive a salary between $82,000 and $98,000, while the Deputy Director General will earn a salary ranging from $75,000 to $89,000.
