We’re a small consulting engineering firm with a big reputation and even bigger ambitions. Join our down-to-earth team and build your career in a workplace where your contribution matters.

Your opportunity at FIELD
Starting a career in office administration is about more than learning how to answer phones and complete routine tasks. It is about developing the confidence, judgement and practical skills needed to become a capable member of a professional office team.

Based in our Mackay office, you will learn on the job with guidance from our experienced administration and finance team while completing a Certificate III in Business. You will be involved in the everyday work that keeps our office and wider business running smoothly, with the opportunity to take on more as your skills and confidence develop.

You will find plenty of variety in this role. Here is a sample of what you will be doing:

• providing friendly and efficient reception service, including answering incoming calls, welcoming visitors and responding to general enquiries
• preparing and formatting documents and completing general typing
• assisting with general administration and filing
• supporting our administration and finance teams
• helping with office supplies, meeting arrangements and other day-to-day office requirements
• running errands
• maintaining the professional presentation of our office.

What you’ll bring
This role will suit a recent school leaver or someone looking to start a career in office administration. Customer service or other casual work experience would be helpful, but attitude, reliability, resourcefulness and a willingness to learn will matter most.

To succeed, you will:

• be confident in your communication with our clients and FIELD team members
• take pride in the quality of your work and display strong attention to detail
• have a sound literacy and numeracy skills
• be comfortable using Microsoft 365 applications including Word, Excel, Outlook and Teams
• be able to multitask and organise your work
• hold a Class C Drivers Licence as you will be required to run errands in a company vehicle
• be committed to completing your traineeship qualification.

You will also need to be up for a challenge, willing to try new things and ready to become part of a busy professional team.
