- Oversight of financial controls in relation to payments and ordering
- Systems development support and data analysis
- Stakeholder relationships and corporate working
For the right candidate who can demonstrate potential as an aspiring manager but doesn’t yet have the essential experience we will consider offering the role as a Grade 10 with progression to a Grade 11.
We believe work-life balance is very important. To support you in achieving this, you will have access to the following discretionary benefits:
- Hybrid Working: Subject to certain conditions being met, you may choose to work from home or in an office location.
- Flexi-time: Hours may be worked within a defined bandwidth, Monday to Friday, subject to service needs.
