About the job
Facility Coordinator National Cricket Centre (NCC)
Working for Cricket Australia means that you become a part of Australia’s proud history and help us look toward the future. We are seeking to drive bold, transformative change in digital experiences, junior participation, culturally diverse inclusion, gender equality and sustainability, re-imagine the W/BBL, build player connection through storytelling and play our part in developing the game globally.
Our purpose is clear; to unite and inspire everyone to love and play cricket. Cricket is so much more than just a game; it brings people together and binds us all through our shared experiences.
This is your opportunity to join a purpose led organisation that truly makes a difference to Australians.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Reporting to the High Performance Infrastructure Manager and based at the National Cricket Centre (NCC) in Brisbane. This is an exciting role within Cricket Australia (CA) as it is responsible for the day-to-day management of the NCC which is a best-in-class sports and training facility that is primarily used by our National Teams when they are back on home soil. The Facility Coordinator plays a key role in ensuring that the NCC is a safe, enjoyable, challenging environment to support the growth of cricket, including National & State Teams.
As the Facility Coordinator you’ll enjoy a varied role which includes office administration for a professional sports facility, management of the facilities booking system & coordination of user groups, management of WHS onsite, onsite management of maintenance services contractors, Aquatic Centre water quality management, Visitor and Staff Inductions including Fire & Evacuation program and facility equipment orders.
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
This is a key role as the first touch point for all users of the NCC facilities so the ideal incumbent will need to be well presented and engaging to all users (internal employees and external stakeholders). You will need to be proactive and thinking one step ahead, strong communication skills and the ability to prioritise will be the key to success for this role. A strong focus on WHS will require previous experience and/or knowledge of WHS and you will need a keen eye for detail.
Knowledge of cricket and its intricacies is not an essential skill needed to apply for this position. This Brisbane based role requires an experienced, enthusiastic and visionary team member who is committed to providing a high level of service to the sport.
WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?
Our employees at Cricket are gifted an additional week leave at the end of season! As a CA employee, you will also have other benefits including:
– Tickets to the Cricket for you to take your friends and family and experience Australia’s favourite game!
– A flexible working environment, meaning we strike the balance of what you need and what works for the business (this isn’t limited to working remotely)
– Discounts from our partners such as ASICS and salary packaging options
– A multitude of leave types including paid parental leave and volunteer leave

We strongly encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, people of colour, women, LGBTIQ+ people, people with diverse religious beliefs and people with a disability to apply.
