About the role

We’re looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Administrative Coordinator to join our Board Governance team in the Ministerial, Board and Executive Services (MBES) Directorate at NESA.

On a day-to-day basis you will:

- Oversee and coordinate the delivery of administrative and support services by administrative service staff to ensure the business needs of the team are met.

- Demonstrated knowledge of governance and experience in performing secretariat duties.
- Understanding of current and emerging education trends and issues.
- Proven ability to develop and maintain strong working relationships with colleagues and stakeholders.
- Experience managing competing demands and adapting quickly to new information to achieve objectives.
- Ability to work collaboratively in a team, contributing to shared goals while managing individual deliverables.

At the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) we work with the NSW community to drive improvements in student achievement. We achieve this by supporting all school sectors with high-quality syllabuses, assessment (including managing the HSC and NAPLAN), teaching standards (e.g., accrediting teachers) and school environments (including setting and monitoring school standards).
