You will ideally have:

· Good organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple requests across different locations.

· Clear communication skills and a helpful, professional approach to supporting staff.

· The ability to work independently on routine tasks while knowing when to seek assistance.

· Good English language skills sufficient to communicate with our Australian staff and document technical work.

Experience supporting healthcare businesses, medical practices or other multi-site organisations would be an advantage.

Relevant IT qualifications or certifications are desirable, but practical ability, initiative and a willingness to learn are equally important.

What we offer
