• Championing learner-centred design, ensuring every touchpoint reflects our commitment to quality, accessibility, and continuous improvement.

This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll coach and support your team, foster innovation, and embed a culture of continuous improvement.

• Work with teams to implement strategic initiatives, boost performance, and continually improve the learner experience.
• Help develop and deliver learner experience strategies, including surveys, feedback initiatives, and forums to drive improvements.

What You'll Bring

• Previous management experience in an RTO or similar environment with a solid understanding of compliance in the VET sector.
• Experience leading and motivating a diverse, high-performing team.
• Flexible, adaptable, and able to thrive in a fast-changing environment.
• Strong people skills — nurturing and supportive, yet confident in providing direction and driving results.
• Skilled at building positive relationships with internal teams and external partners, especially in VET, community services, aged care, and disability sectors.
• Comfortable working with data — collecting, analysing, and using it to make smart decisions.
• Certificate IV in Training and Assessment (TAE) is a bonus.
