Overview

Alchemy Partners is an Australian-owned and led boutique consulting firm that partners with clients to improve business performance through better collaboration. We help organisations navigate complex operating environments by bringing structure, clarity and practical insight to their most challenging problems.

We are seeking a motivated and organised Project Support Officer to join our team supporting a major Federal Government program in Canberra.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to develop their career in project coordination, administration or project management. You don't need extensive experience in a Project Management Office (PMO) – we're looking for someone with strong organisational skills, attention to detail, a positive attitude and a willingness to learn.

Some previous experience in administration, coordination or project support would be ideal.

About the Role

Working as part of a collaborative Project Management Office (PMO), you'll provide administrative and coordination support to help keep a busy program organised and running smoothly.

Your responsibilities will include

- Coordinating meetings, workshops and project activities, including scheduling and logistics

- Preparing meeting agendas, taking minutes and following up on actions

- Maintaining project documentation, registers, records and shared information

- Monitoring and managing shared project inboxes and responding to administrative enquiries

- Assisting with project status reporting, including gathering and consolidating updates

- Supporting project governance activities and maintaining accurate records

- Assisting with onboarding and coordination of project team members and contractors

- Working closely with project managers and other team members to support day-to-day delivery

About You





We're looking for someone who is organised, proactive, reliable and enjoys helping a team succeed.

Ideally, you'll bring:

- Some experience in administration, project support, team coordination or a similar role

- Strong organisational skills and the ability to juggle multiple tasks and priorities

- Good written and verbal communication skills

- Strong attention to detail and a commitment to producing accurate work

- Confidence using Microsoft Office applications, particularly Outlook, Word, Excel and Teams
- A team-oriented approach and willingness to help wherever needed

- Initiative, a positive attitude and an eagerness to learn new skills

Previous experience supporting projects, programs or government teams would be an advantage, but is not essential.

We're equally interested in people who have developed administrative and coordination skills in other environments and are looking for an opportunity to move into project delivery.

Why Join Alchemy Partners?

- Gain valuable experience supporting a major Federal Government program

- Develop practical project coordination and PMO skills

- Work alongside experienced project and program delivery professionals

- Join a supportive, collaborative boutique consulting firm

- Enjoy a varied role with opportunities to learn and develop professionally
