We are a new world university. Like our namesake, Charles Darwin, we think differently. We innovate, embrace change, challenge conventions and look for better ways. We’re not about tradition or legacy, privilege or exclusivity. We care about people as individuals, and about our wider society. We’re about what we can give to the world, rather than what we take. We cannot build a new world without diversity of thought, so we bring together people with unique perspectives in an inclusive and supporting learning environment to help them connect, discover and grow. This is the CDU difference.

Sound administrative and organisation skills and proficiency in a variety of systems and corporate databases and the MS Office package will also be fundamental to your success.

Prior experience within a complex organisation and/or the tertiary education sector and will be highly regarded and a strong track record in delivering against a schedule of deadlines and the capacity to skilfully manage multiple projects concurrently will strengthen your application.
