Our ideal candidate is a warm, exceptionally organised administrator who loves being the first point of contact for families, participants and care teams. You stay calm and on top of a steady flow of incoming requests, prioritizing, tracking and following tasks through to completion so nothing slips. You’re confident and professional in your writing, producing clear, polished reports, quotes and emails.

You’re comfortable moving between online platforms and systems, and you keep accurate records of where every task is up to, with clear written handovers so the team always knows what’s next. You care about detail and confidentiality, and you treat everyone with patience and respect. Most of all, you want to make a real difference behind the scenes for people with disability.

The Administration Assistant keeps CCC running smoothly behind the scenes. You will be the first point of contact for new and existing participants, families and care teams, and you will manage the bookings, records and paperwork that sit behind every program.

You will also help shape what we offer, researching activities across Melbourne and working with the support team to build each month's program calendar.
