If you're excited by the challenge of helping build a Tech School from the ground up, this is your opportunity.
In this pivotal role, you’ll manage the day-to-day operations of the Tech School, ensure a high-performing, inclusive learning environment, and lead key stakeholder relationships.

In this community facing role, you will be responsible for identifying, nurturing, and activating partnerships with industry, tertiary providers, schools, and the wider community.

- Professional learning opportunities that build staff capability across sectors
- Career immersion programs that bring students face-to-face with the future of work
- STEM outreach initiatives that expand access and aspiration in underrepresented communities
