Role This vacancy is located at our Cherry Creek campus; however, all Parkville College staff may be required to work across other campuses/sites within Parkville College.
Range 3 is distinguished by the introduction of management responsibility and accountability for the delivery of professional support services. The role will usually impact beyond the work area or professional field. It seeks to gain cooperation of other staff members or members of the school community to achieve specific objectives, such as in school administration, operations or educational programs.
Direction on targets and goals is provided but the position will have some degree of latitude in determining how they are achieved. This latitude will generally be limited by standard procedures and school policy. Deviation from standard procedures and school policy will require guidance and direction from senior management.
The provision of business management responsibilities becomes a feature at range 3. Management of staff to achieve the expected outcomes is a key responsibility. Staff management issues will be resolved with minimal reference to senior management, although guidance will be required in more complex cases. Senior management will be provided with timely reports and advice, although this will generally be confined to matters relating to the immediate work area, service provision or educational program and is unlikely to impact substantially on whole of school operations.
This is the minimum range for positions that carry a mandatory qualification requirement of not less than four years. Professional student support positions become a feature at range 3 (e.g. therapists, psychologists) where standard professional services are delivered. Professional support and guidance will be close at hand and deviation from standard procedures and school policy will require guidance and direction from senior management.
An education support class position supports the educational services being provided to students, but must not include duties of teaching as defined in clause 2.6.1 of the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (Vic) or its successor. Supervision of students cannot be required except where it is an integral part of the employee's position or involves supervision of students individually or in small groups, in controlled circumstances, where the responsibility for students remains clearly with a teacher.
Responsibilities Track and monitor absences and leave entries, including analysing leave data. Shared responsibility for all campus-based payroll processes (DOE and SLP). Shared responsibility for all campus-based recruitment processes including onboarding processes and HR inductions. Shared responsibility of all campus-based During and Ending employment HR processes and procedures. Support the College central Finance team and other Business and HR Consultants in overseeing the day-to-day expenditure at the Campus. Support the management of campus-based DJCS or DFFH approvals and fix-its. Shared responsibility for monitoring and actioning other administrative tasks including monitoring the Campus email inbox, main phone line, filing, scheduling and booking meetings. In conjunction with the above requirements, Parkville College also sees the below as key responsibilities of the role:
Provide and communicate accurate handovers when absent. Record, monitor, prioritise and delegate tasks to ensure payroll and other HR deadlines are adhered to. Attend and participate in appropriate professional development, including Communities of Practice and Supervision. Balance team and individual responsibilities; by ensuring that practice is underpinned and supports the Parkville College model. Display behaviours that reflect the Parkville College ethos and contribute to the strategic direction of the College. Comply with legislation and College policies, processes, and instructions, including those relating to non-discrimination, safety, and duty of care. Comply with confidentiality protocols related to sensitive staff information. Undertake and comply with mandatory training and regulatory requirements as determined by the College. Who May Apply Individuals with the aptitude, experience and/or qualifications to fulfill the specific requirements of the position.
