What is accent of VJ (brunette woman) in Pacific Heat

A new Netflix animated series Pacific Heat is based in Australia. I am American, and all the accents seem uniform to me except the one used by the brunette female agent named Veronica nickname V.J.

Here is the official "Meet VJ” clip:

Her accent is unfamiliar to me, and to my ears it is very distinct. I watch lots of English TV shows like Midsomer Murders and That Mitchell and Webb Look so I'm familiar with those accents. I've seen Deathgasm and Black Sheep which are New Zealand comedy horror movies. I've watched Irish movies like The Wind That Shakes the Barley and Breakfast on Pluto. I used to work with a Scotsman whom I could barely understand, and I also have similar trouble understanding her, but that doesn't mean they're the same.

I've never heard her particular accent before. I'm guessing it is an obscure accent that is localized to some social subculture.

Can anyone tell me what her accent is?

Note that I don't think the actress accent is the same as the character accent.

My own guesses are:

redneck New Zealand
a French woman who learned English in Australia?
Actress mocking an Australian accent?

I at first assumed her accent was South African. However by episode 8 I believe that it is "ethnic Westie" (Western Sydney - from an Italian or Greek background)
