Research Assistant

Remote (Australia) | Flexible Hours

Our client is a small Australian research and technology company looking for a Research Assistant to join their growing team. The role is ideal for someone early in their career who enjoys learning, solving problems, writing, researching, and getting involved in a wide variety of projects.

This isn't a narrow, highly specialised role. You'll have the chance to work across research, writing, project support, technology, testing and stakeholder engagement, gaining exposure to areas that most entry-level roles don't offer.

If you're curious, organised, comfortable working independently and enjoy figuring things out, this could be an excellent opportunity.

- Researching health and scientific topics and summarising findings clearly
- Assisting with research projects and studies
- Drafting reports, presentations and other written materials
- Testing and reviewing digital questionnaires and online tools
- Organising project documentation and records
- Communicating with academics, publishers and other external stakeholders
- Supporting a range of projects as the business continues to grow

The successful candidate will likely bring:
- Excellent written communication skills
- Strong attention to detail

- Confidence using technology and learning new systems
- The ability to work independently in a remote environment
- Experience using AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude or Microsoft Copilot as part of study or work workflows

What's on Offer?
