Job Description

Student Recruitment Officer - Melbourne/Sydney/Perth

n

Convert inbound enquiries into enrolled students — phone, email and chat, from first contact through to a completed application. Build and run the agent network — visit agents in person, onboard current partners, keep existing ones performing, and drive enrolment volume and quality through them, not just enquiry count. Own the events calendar — plan and attend education fairs, expos and agent workshops, and convert on-the-day conversations with students and agents into real applications.

n

Lead video content for the college — plan, shoot and produce recruitment and promotional video for social and web, on top of the recruitment work, not instead of it. Manage leads from every channel — website enquiries, social and digital marketing campaigns, agent referrals and walk-ins all run through the same disciplined follow-up process. Keep the CRM as the single source of truth — every interaction, every lead source, logged and current, so nothing falls through a gap between channels.
