Re: Rate this job offer
My questions are:
Have you actually been offered the position?
If not, you don't even know if the job is for real - they might have an internal candidate for whom this job was created.
If you have already been offered the job, what sort of role is it? What do you do in IT?
Is this going to be your first job in Australia? Have you been looking for a job for long? Is this the only offer after dozens of applications? Are you under financial pressure? If yes to all these questions, may be it's not that bad an offer. At least get yourself some local experience.

Re: Rate this job offer
I am a Linux sysadmin. This will be a continuation of my present job. I used to work there as a contractor and now I am going to be employed permanently. This was my first job in Australia and I have worked here for a year. Considering the complexity of the job and expertise required, it should have been 80k at least.
I think government jobs are great for the hours, stability, and flexibility with family.
