WHO YOU ARE & THE ROLE

There are lots of qualities that we look for in our team, but above all we need people who are resilient, hands on and genuinely enjoy delivering good customer service.

At UniLodge we provide a home away from home for our residents and we aim to hire staff who will champion fostering a safe, secure and healthy living environment for our student residents.

Some of the responsibilities will include, but not be limited to:

• Creating a friendly environment and delivering a positive resident experience,
• Assist with a range of enquiries related to student residency, studies, general needs, and overall wellbeing,

• Coordinating and execute administrative duties (including incoming and outgoing mail, filing, etc.).
