* Stakeholder Engagement: Partner with Executive Deans, academic staff, and Academic Administration to drive course quality outcomes.
* Facilitation & Influence: Enable academic teams to improve courses, acting as a sounding board and guide rather than owning academic decisions.
* Quality Assurance: Ensure alignment with the Higher Education Standards Framework and internal quality processes.
* Continuous Improvement: Identify and implement process improvements across course review and accreditation workflows.
* Documentation & Governance: Prepare high‐quality accreditation documentation, reports, and submissions.
What your day might look like:
* Managing multiple course reviews simultaneously with clear timelines and milestones.
* Analysing course data and market insights to support recommendations.
* Facilitating discussions with academics on course improvements.
* Coordinating accreditation documentation and governance processes.
* Working independently while collaborating across faculties and teams.
Who you are:

* Experience preparing accreditation documentation and working on course reviews.
* Ability to translate regulatory standards into practical course design outcomes.

* Strong stakeholder engagement skills, particularly with senior academic leaders.
What will set you apart:
* Direct experience working with TEQSA.
* Background in learning design or academic development.
* Ability to operate effectively in evolving environments with manual or developing systems.
* A proactive mindset with a focus on process improvement and efficiency.
Benefits:
* Permanent full‐time position with hybrid flexibility to work from campus and home.
* Hybrid and flexible working arrangements.

* A collaborative, cross‐functional academic environment.
* The chance to influence course quality at scale across the university.
