Join Our Team as a Casual Administration Officer at Peter Mac
Are you organised, adaptable, and passionate about making a difference? Do you thrive in fast-paced environments where your work directly supports patient care?
At Peter Mac, patient experience is at the heart of everything we do. We’re looking for motivated and compassionate individuals to join our team as Casual Administration Officers, helping support our hospital teams while contributing to outstanding patient care.
About the Role
As a Casual Administration Officer, you’ll provide essential administrative support across multiple departments within the hospital. This is a varied and dynamic role where no two days are the same.
You will be expected to manage multiple tasks simultaneously, ensuring that work is completed accurately and efficiently, even when the environment becomes fast-paced or unpredictable. Your ability to stay calm under pressure will be key, as hospitals are high-demand settings where timely and precise administrative work can directly impact patient care and departmental operations.
Flexibility is another essential aspect of this role. You may be called upon to step into different departments or teams at short notice, helping out wherever support is needed most. This could include anything from scheduling appointments, handling correspondence, maintaining records, assisting staff with administrative processes, or coordinating internal communications.
What We’re Looking For
We’re seeking candidates who bring:
• Excellent customer service skills and a positive, proactive attitude
• Strong adaptability and the ability to learn quickly in changing environments
• Availability for a minimum of three days per week (Monday–Friday)
• Previous hospital administration experience (preferred)
• Experience with patient booking systems (highly regarded)
• Confidence learning and working with new computer systems
• Experience with EMR systems, particularly EPIC (highly desirable)
Why Work at Peter Mac?
At Peter Mac, you’ll be part of a supportive team committed to excellence in cancer care.
We offer:
• Flexible shifts with the ability to manage your schedule through Shiftmatch
• Comprehensive orientation and training, including EPIC system training
• Access to our Employee Assistance Program for wellbeing support
• A convenient central city location
• The opportunity to contribute to a leading healthcare organisation dedicated to improving patient outcomes
