The Opportunity

The Project Officer, PACE Curriculum Development sits within UniSC’s Centre for Learning and Teaching and reports to the PACE Program Manager. The role plays a critical part in delivering curriculum transformation projects that support the University’s PACE Learning and Teaching Model, a major initiative designed to provide greater flexibility, personalisation and student success outcomes through renewed curriculum design and modernised learning pathways.

Working across a diverse portfolio of curriculum and program projects, you will lead project coordination activities from planning through to implementation, partnering with academic and professional staff to deliver high-quality outcomes. You will bring structure, rigour and stakeholder focus to complex projects while supporting change adoption across the University.

Above all, you are motivated by the opportunity to contribute to transformational projects that enhance the student experience, drive continuous improvement, and support the delivery of future-focused education.
