Job Description

Purpose of the Role

The Application Support Analyst is the primary point of contact for every incoming helpdesk request raised against Scott Dunn's applications. The role owns the full ticket lifecycle — triage, first- and second-line resolution, escalation and closure — working with the development team where a code-level fix is required, and with the business to manage expectations and keep stakeholders informed. By absorbing the helpdesk load, the role protects developer delivery time and allows planned development work to progress on schedule.

Key Responsibilities

  • Triage and prioritise all incoming tickets, ensuring appropriate SLA response times.
  • Resolve first- and second-line application issues independently, including data corrections, configuration fixes and user guidance.
  • Identify and escalate genuine code defects to the development team with full context and clear reproduction steps.
  • Maintain a known issues log and develop self-service guidance for common, recurring requests.
  • Monitor ticket trends and produce regular reporting to the Applications Developer Team Lead.
  • Work alongside the Technology Team to identify patterns between support tickets and regression issues.
  • Act as the liaison between the business (users across Scott Dunn, Operations and Finance) and the Technology team.

Essential Skills & Experience

  • Demonstrable experience in an application support, technical support within a software-driven business.
  • Working knowledge of SQL and the .NET Framework — sufficient to investigate issues, make data and configuration fixes, and understand defects well enough to escalate them clearly
  • Confidence writing and running SQL queries to investigate and correct data.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a structured approach to triage and root-cause analysis.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate between technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Proven ability to manage a varied ticket queue against SLAs and to prioritise competing demands.
  • A collaborative working style and the ability to build relationships across Operations, Finance, Sales and Development.

Desirable Skills & Experience

  • Familiarity with VB.NET or similar languages.
  • Prior exposure to travel-industry applications or comparable multi-system, integrated operational environments.
  • Experience producing self-service documentation, knowledge-base articles or known-issue logs.

Personal Attributes

  • Ownership mindset — takes responsibility for tickets end-to-end rather than handing them off.
  • Calm and methodical under pressure, particularly when handling business-critical incidents.
  • Curious and self-motivated, willing to invest in learning an older, complex codebase during the onboarding period.
  • Customer-focused, with strong stakeholder-management instincts.
  • Pragmatic — balances speed of resolution with the need to capture root cause and prevent recurrence.

Values & Behaviours

All employees must promote, understand, and apply Scott Dunn’s workplace values. These are embedded in all roles and applicants must evidence the values as part of the application process.

  • In the know - Start by listening. We take the time to understand our guests’ and colleaguesneeds. Be Precise. We take pride in getting every detail right. Own it. We deliver on commitments we make.

About Flight Centre Travel Group

Flight Centre Travel Group (FCTG) is one of the world’s largest travel companies, employing 15,000 like-minded individuals – known as ‘Flighties’.

Our story dates to 1973, when founder Graham Turner (aka “Skroo") and friend Geoff “Spy” Lomas buy a double-decker bus and take off on their first tour around Spain, Portugal and Morrocco, 3 years later forming the first business, Top Deck. After flight deregulations in the 80s our first retail "Flight Centre" stores opened in Australia in 1982, London in 1984, and NZ in 1987.

1987 was also the year we held our first “Global Gathering” awards event celebrating our amazing people, a tradition that continues to this day.

And in 2025 we launched our very first loyalty program, World360 Rewards! Our Australian customers now able to earn and redeem points across Flight Centre, Travel Associates, and Cruiseabout.

We’re in our 40s now and a lot has changed! With global headquarters in Brisbane, Australia, our company owned leisure and corporate travel businesses span three major regions: APAC, The Americas and EMEA.

Our flagship corporate travel management brand, FCM, extends our reach even further through a network covering over 100 countries via both company-owned operations and independent licensees.

With 30 brands across our global footprint, our team spans from customer-facing to internal support roles. The opportunities just as diverse – from a Travel Consultant at Flight Centre or Envoyage, to a Machine Learning Scientist in one of our tech pillars.

Together, we live and breathe our number one philosophy, Our People, driven by our purpose ‘To open up the world for those who want to see’.

Our values are simple and powerful - Ownership, Egalitarianism and Irreverence.

We support our people with opportunities to help you thrive, connect, give, move and be rewarded. Our people have access to a suite of curated benefits to ensure holistic wellbeing – from mental and physical health to financial freedom.
