You’re someone who wants to build a long‑term career in recruitment or you already have and are looking for a change.  You thrive in a fast‑paced environment, enjoy learning new skills, and love helping people. In this role, you'll support our recruitment team with day‑to‑day administration while gaining hands‑on experience across the full recruitment lifecycle.

• Strong organisational instincts with the confidence to manage competing priorities
• Initiative, motivation, and a can‑do attitude
• Clear, engaging written and verbal communication
• Curiosity, ambition, and a desire to learn and/or accelerate your recruitment career
• A great sense of humour and a team‑first mindset — we work hard, celebrate wins, and enjoy the journey together
• If you already have recruitment skills, then we'd love to hear from you!

What You’ll Be Doing

• Provide administrative and coordination support across the recruitment lifecycle (advertising, screening, scheduling, candidate communication).
• Manage and maintain documentation for Government roles including resume formatting, templates, and compliance paperwork.
• Assist with APS and ICT candidate onboarding: reference checks, police checks, security clearances, VEVO, WHS documentation and contract preparation.
• Update and maintain the Applicant Tracking System (ATS) and internal databases.
• Prepare candidate submissions for Government panels, ensuring accuracy and compliance with panel requirements.
• Support account managers with candidate care, extension tracking, and assignment management.
• Liaise with candidates and clients to provide timely updates and a high standard of service.
• Assist with internal reporting, forecasting, and general office administration tasks as required.
• Answering the phone and monitoring and responding to the group in-box.

Skills & Experience Ideally, you will have:

• 3+ years of administration experience, preferably within recruitment or a similar agency environment
• Attention to detail and strong organisational capability
• Excellent phone and written communication skills
• Experience with Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word, Excel)
• Strong time‑management skills and ability to prioritise multiple tasks
• A proactive mindset and the ability to learn quickly
• Contract management experience (desirable but not essential)

What We Offer

• Weekly pay, team commission, and full salary packaging options (including novated leasing)
• Professional development and clear career pathways — including a route into recruitment
• Professional development
• Ongoing mentoring and support
• A genuine voice in shaping the future direction of the company
• A supportive, boutique team environment where people come first
