Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Education Full time

About Us:


The Queensland Children's Hospital School (known also as QCHS) and its regional hospital program partners offer world class educational programs to school-aged children affected by hospitalisation, including patients and family members of hospitalised patients across Queensland to ensure educational continuity for all.

QCH School offers programs for students from Kindy to Year 12 and includes students from the state, Catholic and independent sectors.

Students at QCHS present with a range of medical, developmental, behavioural, emotional and mental health conditions. As leaders in inclusion, differentiation is a strong feature of every teacher's practice. More information can be found on our website.

Your Opportunity:


As the Business Manager you will interpret and analyse business plans and work alongside the Principal to deliver a range of corporate services.

You will manage the timely delivery of organisational executive and administrative support; frequently identify opportunities to adapt processes; supervise the support staff workforce; and encourage an environment in which quality services are delivered by demonstrating best practice, inspiring change and influencing key stakeholders.


About the Role:

  • Demonstrate considerable autonomy, ensuring business service outcomes are achieved; leading diverse teams; and playing a proactive role in modelling service delivery and expectations within a dynamic school environment.
  • Provide support and leadership in the provision of a range of executive and administrative support services (e.g. manage multiple tasks and diverse/multidisciplinary work groups with conflicting priorities and timeframes; interpret departmental policies and oversee training and professional development for school support staff), and recommend and implement changes to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of those processes and work practices.
  • Lead and manage human resources for school support staff (through the identification of emerging talent, promotion of excellent performance outcomes and mentoring individuals to achieve their professional potential); undertake workforce planning; and oversee a breadth of activities (e.g. recruitment, induction, training, vacancy processing, skill gap analysis, performance management, rehabilitation processes). Work with the Principal in leading change within the school support staff, ensuring human resource practices conform to current standards and awards/conditions, and individuals thrive in a transforming work environment.

Mandatory Requirements:

  • When working in regulated employment an employee must have a current Working with Children Clearance (blue card) issued by Blue Card Services.

How to Apply:

  • Attach a brief resume including contact details for 2 referees (referees should have an understanding of your relevant previous work history).
  • Attach a 2pg written statement in response to the attached role description.
