Melbourne City Centre, Victoria, Australia Department of Education Full time
Project Officer - Fixed Term - Full Time
At the Victorian School Building Authority (VSBA) we're building a bright and better education future for Victoria.

We are part of the Department of Education and work across government, industry and the community to design, build, maintain and modernise schools and kindergartens.

And with record investment from the Victorian government, we're doing it at a scale not seen for 150 years.

About Us

The VSBA delivers on three key priorities: 1. To build and expand the schools and early childhood services Victoria needs for its rapidly growing population2. To reform how we maintain and modernise school buildings and grounds3. To engage local communities, giving them more say and keeping them better informed about new schools and major upgrades.

At the VSBA we are very good at what we do, and we're proud of the way we work together to deliver contemporary, safe, and sustainable learning environments that really work.

We know that what we do enables students to do new and better things. Our work changes lives, and it takes passion and a multidisciplinary team of people to make it happen.

We are property and building experts, project managers, architects, former principals and business managers and specialists in relocatable buildings, facilities management, communications, finance, data analytics and policy.

Our culture is the key to our success. We are inclusive and welcoming. We value talent and teamwork and connection.

We support each other to learn and grow and to do our very best work - because our work makes a difference.

We're committed to attracting and retaining the best people.

That means that when you work with us you can expect more than just a great culture:

you'll also have access to the wide range of benefits available to public service employees, including flexible working arrangements, professional development opportunities and generous leave entitlements.

All VSBA staff have a shared responsibility to meet the same service standards outlined in the VSBA Customer Service Charter.

Our goal is to make every interaction with the VSBA a positive one for our customers, colleagues and key partners regardless of our individual role or team.
