Karratha & Districts Chamber of Commerce & Industry | Karratha, WA
Help local businesses build capability and connections. Deliver programs that make a practical difference.
The Karratha & Districts Chamber of Commerce & Industry (KDCCI) is looking for an organised, proactive and people-focused Program Manager to deliver programs that support our local business community.
You'll manage a mix of KDCCI programs, including Grow Local, working closely with businesses, partners and the KDCCI team.
One day you might be talking with a business owner about the support they need, the next coordinating a workshop, meeting with a program partner or connecting two businesses that could help each other. You'll also keep the plans, budgets and reporting on track so good ideas become useful outcomes.
Please note that part time may be considered for the right candidate.
It's a varied role for someone who enjoys working with people and getting things done.
About KDCCI
KDCCI represents and supports the business community of Karratha and the surrounding districts, from sole traders and family businesses through to major industry.
We believe businesses should have the relationships, knowledge and support to build their future with confidence. When businesses succeed, the wider community benefits.
Our work brings together business, industry, government and community to strengthen local capability and create practical opportunities across Karratha and the broader Pilbara.
The opportunity
Reporting to the CEO, you'll plan, manage and deliver a portfolio of programs, working within agreed objectives, budgets and partner requirements.
You will:
Coordinate program activities, schedules and priorities, keeping delivery on track.
Build trusted relationships with local businesses, contributing partners and business support providers.
Identify business needs and connect people with relevant support, mentoring and opportunities.
Organise workshops and events,



securing suitable presenters.
Manage day-to-day program financial administration and monitor budgets.
Keep accurate records, maintain program information and prepare quarterly and annual reports.
Promote program opportunities through clear communications, website updates and local media opportunities.
Gather feedback, assess outcomes and recommend practical improvements.
About you
We're looking for someone who builds relationships easily, takes initiative and follows through. You'll enjoy helping businesses and be comfortable balancing conversations and activities with careful planning and administration.
You'll bring office management experience, strong administration and customer service skills, and confidence using Microsoft 365 and learning new systems.
You'll be organised and thorough, able to manage competing deadlines and work both independently and as part of a small team. Clear communication, sound judgement and respect for confidential information are essential.
You'll know when to solve a problem, when to involve others and how to keep people informed when priorities change.
Experience in a similar role, including program coordination or workshop and event delivery, would be highly regarded. You'll need Year 12 education, an unrestricted WA driver's licence and a police clearance no older than six months. Relevant tertiary qualifications would also be highly regarded.
Why KDCCI?
You'll see how your work helps local businesses build confidence, develop skills and make connections that lead to current opportunities.
Working alongside the CEO and a small, collaborative team, you'll have the opportunity to contribute ideas, take ownership of your work and help improve what our programs deliver.
You'll be part of an organisation focused on leaving Karratha and the broader region stronger for the businesses and people who call it home.
If you're looking for a practical role with variety, purpose and the opportunity to make things happen, we'd love to hear from you.
