Job Description

This is a role for someone who naturally looks at how things are working — and immediately sees how they could work better.

We’re looking for a Utilisation Coordinator who brings a strong maximiser mindset. Someone who notices gaps, patterns, and inefficiencies, and takes action to improve them — not later, but now.

What this role is really about:

  • Maximising every available session — turning gaps into booked services
  • Proactively identifying and acting on underutilisation trends
  • Staying one step ahead of cancellations and quickly backfilling capacity
  • Using waitlists strategically to improve both utilisation and client experience
  • Keeping calendars accurate, current, and aligned across teams
  • Surfacing risks early and focusing effort where it has the biggest impact

What success looks like:

  • You don’t wait for gaps to be flagged — you find them first
  • You spot patterns (repeat cancellations, unused capacity) and act quickly
  • You follow things through — nothing sits unresolved
  • You prioritise the work that will have the greatest impact on utilisation
  • You help create a rhythm where capacity is consistently filled and visible

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has experience in scheduling, rostering, utilisation or service operations
  • Brings a strong bias for action and operational discipline
  • Is confident working across systems (Salesforce, spreadsheets, calendars)
  • Communicates clearly and collaborates across teams
  • Gets energy from improving systems and making things run better

If you’re someone who naturally optimises, improves, and acts — this is a chance to step into a role where that mindset has real impact across the organisation.
