    About the Role

    We're looking for a Scheduler to join our growing team that supports our mobile workforce of allied health specialists and educators - collectively known as 'facilitators'.

    • Training and support in scheduling (Skedulo) and customer support software (ZenDesk) will be provided.

    We are passionate about ensuring the quality of our work and the wellbeing of our team. To achieve these aims, you will be supported by training in and use of leading mobile workforce scheduling and customer support software, ensuring you have the right tools at your disposal to liaise with schools, confirm Profile meetings and notify facilitators of their assigned meetings.
