- Maintaining accurate customer records and updating internal databases.
- Providing guidance and assistance to help customers navigate available services.
- Recording customer feedback and complaints and ensuring these are appropriately escalated.
- Completing general administrative and processing tasks.
- Working towards individual and team performance targets while maintaining accuracy and quality.
About You
To be successful in this opportunity, you will ideally bring:

- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Previous experience working in an office-based environment.
- Strong computer literacy and confidence navigating multiple systems.

- Strong email etiquette and professional communication skills.
- The ability to pick up new systems and processes quickly.
- Excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities.
- A positive, adaptable approach and confidence dealing with a diverse range of customers, including those presenting with challenging enquiries.

Contract Details
- Location: Newcastle CBD - fully office-based during initial training and nesting.
- Contract duration: 4 December 2026 - 3 June 2027.
- Hourly rate: $37.50 + superannuation.
- Hours: Up to 7 hours per day / 35 hours per week.
- Roster: Monday to Friday, between 7:00am and 7:00pm (excluding public holidays).
- Must be available on the 18th of November for in person assessment, which will be part of the interview process.
Successful applicants will work on a rotating roster, with shifts changing every two weeks. This will generally include a combination of early starts (from 7:00am), mid-shifts and later starts (around 11:00am). Flexibility across the operating hours is essential.
Training & Development
All successful applicants will complete a comprehensive two-week classroom-based training program, followed by a supported nesting period of approximately 12 weeks, working closely with experienced team members and subject matter experts.

Any potential transition to working from home will be assessed individually, subject to demonstrated capability, business requirements and approval. Candidates must be comfortable commuting to the Newcastle CBD office and attending onsite whenever required.<
