In this role, you will provide specialist advice, operational support, and training to staff, ensuring compliance with records management legislation and contributing to the continuous improvement of systems and practices that underpin UniSC's information governance.

Working closely with the Manager, Records Management, and teams across the University, you'll deliver tailored guidance, assist with both digital and physical records handling, and support staff in their use of UniSC's records management systems.

About you:

You are a well-organised and adaptable professional with strong knowledge of records management principles, legislation, and systems. With excellent communication skills, you can confidently engage with a broad range of stakeholders, translating complex compliance requirements into clear, accessible guidance.

You enjoy problem-solving, are proactive in identifying improvements, and bring strong attention to detail to everything you do. You value collaboration and take pride in contributing to a well-governed, secure, and effective information environment.

You will possess:

• A relevant qualification in information management or a related field, or equivalent experience;
• Sound understanding of records management legislation, standards, and practices;
• Experience with enterprise records management systems and providing user support;
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to develop plain-language guidance and training materials;
