Job description

Are you passionate about helping young people discover their strengths, explore future possibilities and make informed decisions about education, training and employment? Do you enjoy building meaningful connections with students, families, educators, employers and tertiary providers? If so, we would love to hear from you!

Our College

Nambour Christian College (NCC) is an outstanding co-educational, inter-denominational Prep to Year 12 Christian School located in the heartland of the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. NCC partners in the education of over 1,300 students through our dedicated sub-schools: Junior (P–6), Middle (7–9) and Senior (10–12).

The mission of NCC is to provide a secure and supportive Christ-centred learning community, where a commitment to excellence, creativity and service is encouraged and modelled. The College is also committed to providing a supportive environment for the professional development and personal growth of staff.

About the Role

We are seeking a knowledgeable, relational and highly organised Careers and Pathways Coordinator, who is a registered teacher in Queensland, to commence in 2027 and lead the College’s careers education and pathway planning program.

This role provides students with practical guidance, resources and opportunities to make informed decisions about subject selection, further education, vocational training, apprenticeships, traineeships and employment pathways.

Reporting to the Head of Senior School, the Careers and Pathways Coordinator works collaboratively with College leaders, teaching staff, students, parents, tertiary institutions, employers, industry representatives and external providers. As classroom teaching forms part of the role, the position will also be accountable to the relevant Head of Department and Heads of School.

This role will suit someone who is energised by walking alongside young people, helping them make sense of complex pathway options, and guiding them to recognise their God-given gifts, purpose and potential as they take confident steps towards a meaningful future.

Please review the Position Description on our website for further details.

You are a proactive and approachable professional who builds trust with students and families.

Having a personal alignment and commitment to the Mission and Vision of Nambour Christian College, you see your work with young people as part of a faith-filled calling to encourage, guide and equip students as they discern their God-given gifts and future pathways. You will actively support the Christian ethos of the College and contribute positively to the spiritual life and vitality of our community.
