Wesley Out of School Hours Care
- Out of School Hours Care
- Location: Ermington
- Full-Time - SCHADS Level 3 ($38.65-$41.45)
At Wesley OOSH, we believe the way we operate matters just as much as the care we deliver. Here, you will work alongside senior leaders who believe leadership and integrity should define how OOSH is run. This is a role with real responsibility at the heart of our organisation, where your judgement, professionalism and presence will directly shape how families experience Wesley OOSH.
About the role
As the Administration Assistant, you will be the first point of contact for families and the voice of Wesley OOSH. You will manage enquiries, support enrolments, oversee CCMS processes, and handle accounts and payments across our services. This role requires someone who is organised, calm under pressure, and confident working independently while embedded within a high-performing leadership team.
You will work closely with the Head of OOSH and the wider management team, contributing to important operational conversations and ensuring families experience professionalism and care at every interaction. This is not a task based administration role. It is a position of trust, responsibility, and influence within a growing portfolio of 14 services.
You will have autonomy in your work and the expectation to manage your responsibilities without daily direction, while being supported by a committed team focused on strengthening our sector and delivering excellence across Wesley OOSH.
What we are looking for
We are seeking a bright and warm professional who understands that every interaction with a family matters. You are someone people instantly trust. You bring genuine care, strong customer service expertise, and the ability to remain calm and composed under pressure.
You are organised and self directed. You do not wait to be managed and you take ownership of your responsibilities. You understand the importance of accuracy when working with accounts, payments, and CCMS, while never losing sight of the human experience behind each enquiry.
You enjoy working closely with a leadership team, contributing to meaningful conversations, and being part of a group committed to strengthening our sector and supporting families well.
