Are you highly organised, proactive and passionate about making a difference in your community?

This is more than an administration role. It’s an opportunity to be part of a collaborative initiative that is helping improve outcomes for children, families and communities across the North.

This is your chance to use your administrative expertise to support a cooperative initiative that brings together schools, community organisations, government agencies and local partners to create positive impact.

You will play a vital role supporting the people, partnerships and projects that help make this work possible. Behind every meeting, community event, report and project milestone is someone keeping things moving, and that someone could be you.
