Melbourne
Who We Are Contour was founded in 2020 by students who saw that the quality of your education was basically a lottery. Teachers stretched thin by the system, learning materials that varied from school to school, and support that stopped the moment you left the classroom. We began with 5 students in a room. Today 15,000+ students have trusted Contour as their academic partners, and we've grown to 500+ team members across 10 campuses in Australia. In 2025 we ranked #8 on the AFR Fast 100 of fastest-growing companies. We've produced hundreds of 99+ ATARs, tutored the world-record UCAT scorer, and placed 850+ students into medical and dental schools across Australia. Contour is made up of three brands:
• Contour Education → academic performance in high school
• Contour MedPrep → entry into medical and dental schools
• Contour TestPrep → entry into selective and scholarship schools Contour is built by students, for students.
What You'll Do
You'll carry the hardest cases yourself and raise the standard of the support experience.
• Handle the escalations: Take the calls other reps can't resolve, including the second and third contact from a frustrated family, and close them out yourself.
• Answer and resolve: Cover live calls, email and messages, and resolve transactional requests on the spot. Where you can't, set a dated callback and follow it through.
• Route and own: Triage cleanly, raise linked requests for other teams with the context they need, and track every open item through to closure.
• Improve the system: Spot gaps in process or scripting, and put forward fixes rather than just working around them.
• Keep the record: Log every interaction to the family record, and help families self-serve where it genuinely helps them. What You'll Bring
• Proven experience in a customer-facing, service or contact-centre role, including handling escalations or complex cases.
• Fast, organised and reliable, with pride in nothing being dropped.
• Warm, clear and confident phone manner, even when the caller isn't.
• Strong written communication across email and messaging.
• Composure under pressure, and the judgement to know what to escalate versus resolve yourself.
• Comfortable with HubSpot and AI tools.
• Understanding of Australian school systems across states and year levels (VCE, HSC, QCE), or a fast learner who can pick it up.
• Flexibility to work shifts across a 9am to 9pm window, including some evening and weekend availability, since that's when families are most reachable.
• Melbourne-based across our Glen Waverley and CBD campuses, with a hybrid working setup. Why You'll Love It
• Own the hard cases and see your fixes actually change how the team runs.
• Build real, lasting relationships with the families you support, not one-off transactions.
• Directly shape retention and student outcomes at a fast-growing company.
• Transparent path for career development as Contour scales.
• Competitive salary plus hybrid flexibility, extra leave, EAP access, and lifestyle perks.
