Join a dynamic team where you’ll play a critical role in protecting UniSQ’s Commonwealth funding, ensuring compliance and providing expert advice on student fees and TCSI reporting.
Who you are
You are a detail-oriented and analytical professional who thrives in a complex, fast-paced environment where accuracy, compliance, and data integrity are critical. You enjoy working with systems and data, solving complex problems, improving business process and providing trusted advice to colleagues and students on matters relating to fees, funding, and student records. You take pride in ensuring the integrity of reporting and processes, and understand the importance of robust data validation and error management in minimising financial, compliance, and reputational risk.
With strong organisational and communication skills, you are confident managing competing priorities while maintaining a high standard of service delivery. You bring a collaborative mindset and enjoy working with stakeholders across teams to ensure processes run smoothly and information is accurate and reliable. Curious and proactive, you are always looking for ways to improve processes, strengthen compliance, and contribute to better outcomes for students and the University.
What you'll do
In this role, you’ll help safeguard UniSQ’s Commonwealth funding and regulatory compliance by ensuring the accuracy and integrity of student data reporting and fee administration. You’ll lead and contribute to best-practice validation of key student and enrolment data in the Peoplesoft Student Management System, ensuring accurate and consistent reporting through to the Tertiary Collection of Student Information (TCSI). You will monitor error surveillance reports and investigate and resolve root-cause data deficiencies, with a focus on collaborating with business units to improve business process and uplift data integrity.
Throughout 2026 you will support major planned work in conjunction with Information Technology and Digital Services (ITDS)and key stakeholders to improve the University’s TCSI reporting and monitoring functionality, to optimise annual submissions and data assurance practices. You’ll deliver core fee administration services across the student lifecycle, including contribution to annual fee setting, tuition fee processes, and assessment of waive penalty applications across Commonwealth Supported, international, and domestic full fee-paying cohorts. Using your expertise in legislation and regulatory requirements, you’ll interpret Department requirements and provide expert advice to ensure fee, funding, and reporting decisions are consistent, compliant, and audit-ready.
As part of a newly formed specialist team, you’ll also help shape the way the University manages student data and funding compliance - working collaboratively across teams to strengthen data governance, improve business processes, and build staff capability.
Your work will directly support better data, better decisions, and better outcomes for students and the University.
What will help you succeed
To excel in this role, you will bring:
* A degree with subsequent relevant experience in administration, student services or a related field or an equivalent alternate combination of relevant knowledge, training and/or expertise.
* Proven experience in data quality assurance, analysing and improving business processes, and identifying, reporting, and resolving data issues.
* Experience interpreting complex regulatory requirements and delivering accurate, compliant services and advice in a complex, regulated environment.
* Ability to manage competing priorities, resolve complex problems and make audit-ready decisions.
* Confidence using student management systems and digital tools for accurate data and reporting.
* Strong collaboration skills and a proactive approach to improving processes and supporting student outcomes.
