Are you a proactive problem-solver with a sharp eye for detail and a passion for making things happen? At Australian Retirement Trust, our CEO Office is looking for a Senior Business Support Specialist who thrives in dynamic environments, embraces complexity, and brings energy, curiosity, and confidence to every challenge.

• You'll get 14% super as standard, to help your future come alive.

About the role

We're all about helping our members make the most of their money. And while they go after their goals, you can too. Reporting to the Business Manager – CEO Office, this newly created role places you at the centre of strategic operations, supporting our CEO and Executive Committee. You'll be trusted to manage sensitive matters, drive key initiatives, and ensure the smooth running of executive functions. If you're someone who sees opportunity in ambiguity and enjoys connecting dots others miss, this is the role for you.

• Partner closely with the Business Manager – CEO Office to support executive priorities and operations.
• Act as a strategic liaison, confidently managing confidential communications and incoming requests.
• Draft and coordinate high impact briefing notes, reports, and presentations.
• Identify critical issues and take initiative to resolve them before they escalate.
• Build strong relationships across the organisation to ensure clear and consistent communication.
• Lead and support projects that align with our CEO's strategic agenda, from concept to completion.
• Help design and deliver executive meetings, conferences, and special events.

This role is a permanent opportunity based in Brisbane.

• You thrive in high-pressure, fast-paced environments and bring experience that shows you can handle complexity with confidence.
• You know how to act with diplomacy, patience, and discretion, especially when dealing with sensitive matters.
• Your written communication is sharp and clear, and you have a keen eye for detail. You can quickly and accurately draft correspondence, presentations, pitch documents, and slide packs.
• You're highly organised and adaptable, and you flourish in environments of continuous change while working with a wide range of stakeholders.
