Business manager - mabel park state school (logan city)

The Department of Education is dedicated to building an inclusive and diverse workforce that reflects the community and schools we support by treating everyone with respect and dignity. This starts with recruitment and selection. The methods of assessing suitability in the recruitment process may vary. This includes making reasonable adjustments to support applicants at all stages of the process and employee lifecycle.

The school's vision \"Every child, every day learning and achieving\" recognises the correlation between attendance and achievement. While some student absence is unavoidable, our goal is for every student to attend 90% of the approximate 200 school days each year. Poor school attendance can be linked to a number of adverse outcomes for students including lower academic outcomes, early school leaving, substance use, poverty, unemployment and negative health outcomes.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Demonstrate considerable autonomy, ensuring business service outcomes are achieved; leading diverse teams and playing a proactive role in modelling service delivery and expectations within a dynamic school environment.

• Lead and manage human resources for school support staff (through the identification of emerging talent, promotion of excellent performance outcomes and mentoring individuals to achieve their professional potential); undertake workforce planning; and oversee a breadth of activities (e.g. recruitment, induction, training, vacancy processing, skill gap analysis, performance management, rehabilitation processes).
