Student Services Advisor

Here at Torrens University Australia, we do things a little differently. Our staff thrive on being dynamic, resilient and responsive — and this role is no exception. Reporting to the Student Services Team Leader in Adelaide, you'll join a passionate team dedicated to delivering an exceptional learning experience for every student who walks through our doors.

The Student Services Advisor (Campus) plays a pivotal role in resolving enquiries from new and current students on campus, ensuring they receive a best-in-class experience that is consistent across all locations. You'll be the first point of contact for students, helping them navigate their studies, processes, systems and support services — and ensuring their concerns are resolved from beginning to end.

This is a full-time, on-campus role. There is no hybrid or remote working option, as the responsibilities require you to be physically present to support our student community.

Applicants must have full Australian working rights with no restrictions on hours or length of work.
