We are seeking an experienced Admin and Operations Coordinator to support the smooth, compliant and efficient running of this purpose-driven consultancy. This is not an entry-level administration role, it is suited to someone who enjoys coordination, systems oversight and working with autonomy in a small, professional environment.
This is a coordination-level position responsible for managing day-to-day office systems, financial administration workflows, compliance documentation and operational support across the business. You will work closely with the Director/Principal Ecologist and liaise with external Finance, IT, HR, OHS and Governance advisors to ensure internal systems are maintained, documentation is accurate and processes are followed. This role is central to ensuring Ecologic NRM’s environmental and ecological work is supported by strong, efficient and compliant operational systems.
About You
You enjoy ensuring things run smoothly and take pride in accuracy, consistency and reliability. You are organised, calm and systems-focused. You bring experience coordinating operations in a small or medium-sized organisation and are confident working across finance, documentation systems and external service providers. You understand the importance of discretion, compliance and clear escalation pathways in a professional services environment. Experience in environmental, consulting or small business contexts will be well regarded but is not essential. About Ecologic NRM Ecologic NRM is a Gippsland-based, profit-for-purpose environmental consultancy delivering ecological assessment, statutory planning support and natural resource management services across East Gippsland and surrounding regions. Working with government, industry, landholders and community stakeholders, Ecologic NRM supports biodiversity protection, sustainable land management and positive environmental outcomes. Profits are reinvested into conservation initiatives and regional capacity building.
Key Selection Criteria:
1. Experience coordinating office operations and maintaining efficient administrative systems in a small or medium-sized organisation.
