  • Experience with SharePoint Online and Office 365.
  • Working knowledge of Jira and Confluence preferable.
  • Familiarity with Human Capital Management and/or payroll systems is highly desirable.
  • Excellent attention to detail, organisation, and communication skills.

If you meet some of these requirements, but not all, we encourage you to submit your application. 

We offer a range of flexible working options, so you can balance your work and life commitments and interests. Have a conversation with us about how this could work for you.  

We embrace diversity with a foundation of safety, wellbeing and inclusion; where everyone belongs. We treat everyone with fairness, consideration and respect, regardless of gender, gender identity, marital or family status, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, religious beliefs, cultural or socio-economic background, perspective, and experience – whether they work for us or not. We want to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe to express ideas, questions and concerns.
