  • Tracking deadlines and maintaining the tender and grant pipeline tracker to keep internal stakeholders informed and submissions on schedule
  • Liaising with external stakeholders such as government agencies, funding bodies and partners, and acting as a key contact for routine queries
  • Assisting with the drafting, formatting and proofreading of reports, presentations and briefing notes to support communications
  • Organising logistics and administrative needs for conferences, forums and engagement events
  • Using technology and AI tools to streamline submission processes and improve efficiency in document preparation and stakeholder management

  • Strong written communication skills with the ability to produce clear documents and maintain high standards of presentation
  • Excellent time management and organisational skills with confidence in managing multiple priorities and meeting tight deadlines
  • High attention to detail and a commitment to confidentiality and accuracy in all aspects of work
  • The ability to interpret complex tender documents and distil key information into actionable briefs
  • The ability to work autonomously in a stand-alone role, managing your day effectively and taking ownership to shape and grow the position
  • Business acumen and a curiosity for growth with an interest in contributing to innovation
  • Cultural awareness and inclusivity with a respectful and values-driven approach to stakeholder engagement

Essential Requirements

  • Proven experience in high-level administrative or tender coordination, ideally in the not-for-profit sector
  • Current Australian Driver’s Licence
  • Ability to pass a National Police History Check
