Right now, we are seeking a bright and energised Project Coordinator.

Join our team of outstanding people with expertise across a wide variety of disciplines and position yourself at the forefront of tomorrow's capabilities.

In return, we will support you with access to best practice tools, systems and processes while continually investing in your growth by providing tailored learning and development opportunities.

Start your mission in a career filled with extraordinary opportunities

for learning, mentoring and professional development. We offer flexible work and career growth backed by global expertise and a supportive culture.

This is your opportunity to join a fast-moving company that works on interesting and unique projects to support Australia's defence mission and contribute to the critical outcomes of the Australian Defence Force.

Working as part of our Business Support Team, you will be providing valued support and insights to both our front-line teams and to our customer. As a Project Coordinator reporting directly to the Business Manager, you will be at the heart of navigating technical and functional support needs to ensure that our program provides consistent, efficient, and reliable services to our customer.

Working in partnership with team leaders and peers you will gain insights into the capabilities needed to deliver a successful Defence sustainment program and grow your experience and skills accordingly.

As our ideal candidate you are proactive, willing to learn and have a friendly and professional demeanour with a focus on efficiency. You thrive in an environment where you can manage priority tasking while getting through day-to-day activities and constructively interact with cross-functional teams and stakeholders.  You are equally comfortable with routine administration tasks as you are with more involved work, for example preparing and analysing metrics, working with data, and finding practical ways for our teams to excel.

• Ensure activities are consistent with overall program data management and approval requirements.
