Wednesday and Thursday | 8.30am -4.30pm

  • Based at a larger, busier community hub, you'll work alongside a friendly and supportive team, with opportunities to manage reception independently.
  • You'll help connect visitors with the right people and services, including our homelessness support team, while confidently managing a variety of enquiries.
  • There may also be opportunities to pick up additional shifts.

You’ll be trusted to make a valuable impact by:

  • Creating a welcoming and inclusive reception experience, responding to enquiries with empathy, professionalism and respect.

To thrive in this role, you will have:

  • Previous experience in reception, administration or customer service, ideally within a busy, community-facing environment.

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Outlook, Word and Excel, with the ability to learn new systems.
  • A Certificate III in Business Administration or equivalent practical experience.

We would also love you to have:

  • Experience working in community services, homelessness support, emergency assistance or another people-focused environment.
  • An understanding of trauma-informed approaches and experience supporting people experiencing vulnerability or distress.
  • Familiarity with financial administration, invoice processing or systems such as TechOne.
