Executive Assistant & Operations Coordinator
n
Executive Assistant & Operations Coordinator – Franchise Support
n
Gold Coast, QLD
n
Full Time
n
$75,000 – $85,000 + super
n
The Doctor Services Group is looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant & Operations Coordinator to work directly with our Head of Operations and play an important role in the ongoing growth and success of our franchise network.
n
This isn't a traditional PA role where every day revolves around managing a diary.
n
You'll be at the centre of a busy, growing business — coordinating franchise operations, helping keep projects moving, managing contracts and documentation, organising travel, communicating with franchisees and making sure the important things actually get done.
n
If you're highly organised, naturally proactive and love being the person who brings order, follow-through and momentum to a team, we'd love to meet you.
n
Why join The Doctor Services Group?
n
We've built our business around great people, robust relationships and helping our franchisees build successful businesses of their own.
n
You'll join a friendly, connected and supportive Gold Coast team where people know each other, work together and genuinely contribute to the success of the broader business.
n
We offer:
n
n
- A genuinely varied role — no two days will look quite the same.
n
- A close-knit team environment where your contribution will be noticed and valued.
n
- Direct involvement in the operation of a growing franchise network.
n
- Great working conditions in a professional but down-to-earth environment.
n
- Meaningful work where what you do directly helps franchisees and the business succeed.
n
- The opportunity to work closely with our Head of Operations and gain exposure to virtually every part of the business.
n
- Plenty of responsibility, autonomy and opportunities to improve how things are done.
n
- A business with an established history, strong brands and exciting plans for the future.
n
n
We work hard, but we also believe work should be enjoyable. We're looking for someone who wants to become a genuine part of the team rather than simply fill an administrative position.
n
The role
n
Working closely with our Head of Operations, you will become the key coordination and administrative support person.
n
Your job will be to keep everything organised behind the scenes — making sure meetings happen, commitments are followed up, franchisees receive support, documents are completed, projects stay on track and nothing important falls through the cracks.
n

n
- Manage the Head of Operation's diary, appointments and meeting schedule.

n
- Help maximise the effectiveness of Peter's time while travelling.
n
n
Reporting & Administration
n
n
- Prepare weekly and monthly reports.
n
- Maintain operational registers and KPI information.

n
- Prepare presentations and business documents.
n
- Maintain well-organised electronic filing and document management systems.
n

n
n
Who we're looking for
n
The right person will probably describe themselves as highly organised, proactive and dependable.
n
You're someone who sees that something needs doing and takes responsibility for getting it done.
n
You don't need to be constantly reminded to follow things up. In fact, you're usually the person reminding everyone else.
n
You'll be comfortable dealing with a wide variety of people — from franchise business owners and suppliers through to managers, lawyers and members of our internal team.
n
Most importantly, you'll enjoy becoming an important part of a business and taking genuine ownership of your role.
n
You'll ideally bring
n
n
- 3–5+ years' experience as an Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, Senior Administrator or Operations Coordinator.
n
- Exceptional organisational and time-management skills.
n
- Excellent written and verbal communication.
n
- Strong attention to detail.
n
- Confidence managing multiple priorities and deadlines.
n
- Excellent follow-up skills.
n
- Strong Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPoint skills.
n
- Experience preparing professional correspondence and business documentation.
n
- The maturity and discretion required to handle confidential information.
n
- A current driver's licence.
n
- A positive, calm and solutions-focused approach.
n
n
Experience in franchising, multi-site businesses, project coordination, contract administration, CRM systems or document management would be highly regarded — but isn't essential.
n
What will make you successful here?
n
n
- Anticipates what needs to happen next.
n
- Takes ownership rather than waiting to be instructed.
n
- Enjoys creating organisation out of complexity.
n
- Communicates confidently and professionally.
n
- Follows things through to completion.
n
- Remains calm when priorities change.
n
- Builds strong relationships with the people around you.
n
- Enjoys variety and solving problems.
n
- Takes pride in being reliable.
n
- Wants to contribute ideas rather than simply process tasks.
