To be considered, you'll ideally bring:

• Experience in project administration, senior administration, executive administration or project office support.
• Previous experience supporting projects within mining, resources, engineering, construction or a similar complex environment.
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities without losing track of the detail.
• Experience coordinating meetings, travel, documentation, actions and project-related logistics.Confidence working directly with senior managers and multidisciplinary project teams.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Excellent attention to detail and a proactive approach to getting things done.
• Strong Microsoft Office skills and the ability to pick up new systems quickly.

What's on Offer

• 12-month contract with extensions

• Opportunity to join a new project from the establishment stage.
• Work closely with senior leaders and have a genuine influence on how the project office operates.
