About the Role
We’re looking for an organised, personable and proactive Administration Assistant to join our small team. This is a full-time, fixed-term role running to 26 February 2027, providing administrative support across two organisations — the Youth Coalition of the ACT, the peak youth affairs body representing around 78,000 young Canberrans, and Families ACT, the peak body supporting 41 member organisations working with children and families. It’s an exciting time to join, with both organisations in a period of growth.
You’ll be the friendly face and steady hand behind our day-to-day operations, covering reception, office administration and event coordination, and acting as first point of contact for visitors, members and stakeholders. This is more than a “keep the lights on” role — working alongside our Office Manager, you’ll have real scope to identify better ways of working, document procedures and help implement systems that support both organisations as they grow. You’ll also liaise regularly with a diverse range of people, from young people to government representatives, so a warm, professional and adaptable communication style is essential.
