ABOUT THE ROLE
The Campus Manager will be the campus's sole administrator and a key member of the Campus Leadership Team. We are seeking a skilled and versatile all-round administrator with leadership experience who can take ownership of a broad range of operational and administrative responsibilities. This role will be particularly important during the campus's establishment and early growth, helping to build effective systems, processes and routines that support a well-organised, responsive and welcoming campus.
We are seeking an experienced, highly organised and adaptable Campus Manager to join our foundation team and play a key role in establishing the systems, processes and operational foundations of our new campus.
As the sole campus-based administrator, the Campus Manager will be a skilled all-rounder who is comfortable taking ownership of a diverse range of responsibilities. The position will work closely with the Head of Campus and will be an important member of the Campus Leadership Team, along with maintaining key working relationships across both campuses.
This is much more than a traditional school administration role. During the establishment and early growth of the campus, the Campus Manager will help turn plans into effective day-to-day operations, developing practical local systems and ensuring the campus is organised, safe, welcoming and responsive to the needs of young people, families and staff.
The role will have broad responsibility across areas including:
day-to-day campus administration and operational coordination;
enrolment administration and management of student and campus records;
establishment and ongoing development of administrative systems and processes;
facilities, maintenance, procurement and asset coordination;
transport, IT and other operational services;
workplace health and safety, emergency preparedness and compliance processes;
recruitment administration, local staff onboarding and induction;
contractor and service-provider coordination;
correspondence, reporting and operational communication; and
providing a welcoming and professional first point of contact for young people, families, visitors and community members.
ABOUT YOU
We are particularly interested in someone who brings strong administrative capability together with leadership experience. You will need to be comfortable working independently, exercising initiative and judgement, prioritising competing demands and solving problems as they arise.
The successful applicant will be someone who enjoys creating order, building systems and making things work. You will be equally comfortable managing detailed administrative requirements, coordinating people and services, responding to unexpected operational issues, and contributing to broader campus planning.
Experience in education would be advantageous but is not essential. We welcome applicants with strong administrative and operational leadership experience from other sectors who are attracted to the opportunity to help establish something new and make a meaningful contribution to the lives of young people.
Above all, we are looking for a highly capable, relational and dependable person who will take pride in helping build the North West Campus from its infancy and become an integral member of our foundation team:
Relevant certificate/diploma or administration experience
Experience working in a school workplace.
Understanding of service provision to marginalised young people particularly within the alternate education sector.
High level of verbal and written communication skills, including participating in meeting processes, report writing and negotiation skills.
Comprehensive experience with computer applications such as databases, word processing, spreadsheets, e-mail and web technology is essential
Ability to work to deadlines, multi-task, prioritise the workload, work autonomously and in an integrated manner as a member of a multi-disciplinary team.
A Tasmanian Working with Children Clearance Notice or ability to obtain
First Aid qualification is preferred
