Kepple is a Melbourne based tech startup, ranked 13th on the 2024 Australian Financial Review Fast Starters list. We design, build and operate mobile and web applications for the education sector, and we’re looking for more people to help accelerate the growth of Spark Relief Teachers.
Spark employs casual staff and connects them with schools and early childhood centres through our mobile app. In 2026 it won a Positive Design Award for service design in the education category.
About the Role
This role sits within our Operations team and suits someone who loves building relationships, solving problems quickly and working in a fast paced environment. You’ll be assigned a region and manage the customer accounts within it. Your main job is to support existing accounts and drive growth.
Growth comes from increasing usage across existing accounts and winning new ones. If you’re driven to make an impact and thrive on a bit of organised chaos, you’ll fit right in.
You’ll be based in our Richmond office, regularly visiting schools and representing Spark at sector events.
This role starts in January 2027, so there’s time to wrap up your current commitments.
About You
There’s no single type of person who suits this role. Everyone in our business is encouraged to manage their accounts and growth in their own style, and our team is here to support and guide you whenever you need it. Whether you’re just starting out or have been working for years, this role could be a great fit, and we encourage you to apply.
